Solution
(i) Nylon
(iv) Polyesters
Explanation:
Nylon and polyester are thread forming fibres which possesses high tensile strength and high melting point. They have strong intermolecular forces like hydrogen bonding.

Assertion: Polyamides are best used as fibres because of high tensile strength.
Reason: Strong intermolecular forces (like hydrogen bonding within polyamides) lead to close packing of chains and increase the crystalline character, hence, provide high tensile strength to polymers
