    Directions: Each of these questions contains two statements:
    Assertion [A] and Reason [R]. Each of these questions also has four alternative choices, any one of which is the correct answer. You have to select one of the codes [a], [b], [c] and [d] given below.
    Assertion [A] If a line divides any two sides of a triangle in the same ratio, then the line is parallel to third side.
    Reason [R] Line segment joining the mid-point of any two sides of a triangle is parallel to the third side.

    A) A is true, R is true; R is a correct explanation for A.

    B) A is true, R is true; R is not a correct explanation for A.

    C) A is true; R is False.

    D) A is false; R is true.

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    Statement I is a basic proportionality theorem and Statement II is a mid-point theorem. But mid-point theorem is not the correct explanation of BPT.
    Statement I is True and Statement II is True but statement II is not the correct explanation of Statement I.
