उत्तर
A is false, R is true.
Explanation:
The assertion is false because the radius is $10\text{ cm}$ and $\text{AP}$ is $4\text{ cm}$, meaning the actual length is:
OP = `sqrt(10^2 - 4^2)`
∴ OP = `sqrt84` cm
The reason is a true statement as it correctly applies the Pythagorean theorem to the right-angled triangle and accurately identifies the line segment addition from the diagram.
