Assertion (A) : A shape (say circle) can be rotated from one position to another about it centre.
Reason (R) : Rotation is defined by (i)the angle of rotation, (ii) the direction of rotation and the centre of rotation.
Both A and R are correct, and R is the correct explanation for A.
Both A and R are correct, and R is not the correct explanation for A.
A is true, but R is false.
A is false, but R is true.
Answer
A circle can be rotated about its center by any angle, and it will still look exactly the same because all points on the circle are equidistant from the center.
So, assertion (A) is true.
Angle of Rotation determines the amount of turning involved in the rotation.
Direction of Rotation indicates whether the rotation is clockwise or counterclockwise.
Center of Rotation is the fixed point around which the object rotates.
Thus, rotation is defined by (i)the angle of rotation, (ii) the direction of rotation and the centre of rotation.
So, reason (R) is true.
∴ Both A and R are correct, and R is the correct explanation for A.
Hence, option 1 is the correct option.

Assertion (A) : The image of a point A(5, 6) under an anticlockwise rotation of 90°, about the origin is A'(-6, 5).
Reason (R) : When a point P is rotated through 90° clockwise direction about the origin, then abscissa of the given point becomes the ordinate with opposite sign of the resultant point and the ordinate of the given point becomes the abscissa of the resultant point.
