Answer

Both A and R are true and R is the correct explanation of A.

Explanation
Open Source Software and Freeware may come free of cost, but they are not the same. Open Source Software is a software that is available free of cost to customers and can be modified and redistributed without limitations. It makes the source code of the software available to customers. On the other hand, Freeware is also available free of cost, but it does not allow modification of the software and does not make the source code available to customers.
