Assertion (A): The ratio between radius and area of a circle is 7 : 44. If the radius of this circle is doubled, the ratio between the new radius and area of the resulting circle will be 7 : 176. Reason (R): Given : r/πr^2 = 7/44 ∴ 2r/r(2r)^2 = r/2πr^2 = 1/2 x 7/44 = 7 : 88 1. A is true, R is false. 2. A is false, R is true. 3. Both A and R are true. 4. Both A and R are false.

Assertion (A): The mean of 5 observations is 30. On excluding one of these observations, the mean of the remaining observation is increased to 31. The excluded observation is
= 5 x 30 - 4 x 31 = 150 - 124 = 26
Reason (R): The excluded observation is = 5 x 31 - 4 x 30 = 155 - 120 = 35

Assertion (A): Two circles touch each other externally. The sum of their areas is 74π cm2 and distance between their centres is 12 cm. Then difference between their radii is 2 cm.
Reason (R): When two circles touch each other internally, then two centres and point of contact lie on the same line and distance between their centres equals to the difference between two radii.
