Assertion (A) : The radius of a circle is 20 cm, then the length of its largest chord is also 20 cm.

Reason (R) : Longest chord of a circle is equal to its diameter.

  1. Both A and R are correct, and R is the correct explanation for A.

  2. Both A and R are correct, and R is not the correct explanation for A.

  3. A is true, but R is false.

Answer

As we know that radius is half of the diameter.

Diameter = 2 x radius = 2 x 20 = 40 cm.

We know that,

Longest chord of a circle is equal to its diameter.

So, reason (R) is true.

Longest chord = 40 cm

So, assertion (A) is false.

∴ A is false, but R is true.

Hence, option 4 is the correct option.
