ASSERTION & REASON WORKSHEET DATE: 23/05/2024

DIRECTION: In the following questions, a statement of Assertion (A) is

followed by a statement of Reason (R). Mark the correct choice as:

(a) Both assertion (A) and reason (R) are true and reason (R) is the correct
explanation of assertion (A)

(b) Both assertion (A) and reason (R) are true and reason (R) is not the correct
explanation of assertion (A)

(c) Assertion(A) is true but reason(R) is false.

(d) Assertion(A) is false but reason(R) is true.

1. Assertion (A): The amount and the compound interest on Rs 160000

for 2 years at 10% per annum, compounded half-yearly are Rs 194481
and Rs 34481 respectively.
Reason (R): The compound interest compounded half yearly is

𝑅 2𝑛 𝑅 2𝑛
C.I.=P[(1 +
200
) −1] and amount is A=P(1 + 200
)

2. Assertion (A): Simple Interest and Compound Interest compounded

annually calculated for the same sum, at the same rate of interest for
one year is equal.
Reason (R): Compound Interest varies with each year for the same
principal amount and increases for successive years.

3. Assertion : The value of 593 × 607 is 359951.

Reason : (a + b) (a – b) = a2 – b2

 4. 2
Assertion (A): (2 + √2) = 5 + 4√2
Reason (R): (𝑎 + 𝑏)2 = 𝑎2 + 𝑏 2 + 2𝑎𝑏
5. Assertion (A): The factorisation of 𝑥 2 − 10𝑥 + 25 is
(𝑥 − 5)(𝑥 − 5)
Reasons (R): The factorisation is of an algebraic expression cannot be
done using identities.
6. Assertion (A): The factorisation of 6xy – 4y + 6 – 9x is
(3x – 2) (2y – 3)
Reasons (R): The factorisation is defined as expressing or
decomposing a number or an algebraic expression as a product of its
prime factors or irreducible factors.
7. Assertion (A): The conjugate of 4+√6 is 4-√6
Reasons (R): √27 is not a rational number.
8. Assertion (A): Every rational number is written in the form p/q where
p and q are integers, q≠0
Reasons (R): 7√3 is a rational number.
9. Assertion (A): If 𝐴𝐵 = 𝑋𝑌, 𝐵𝐶 = 𝑌𝑍, 𝐴𝐶 = 𝑋𝑍 𝑎𝑛𝑑 ∠𝐴 = ∠𝑋, ∠𝐵 =
∠𝑌, ∠𝐶 = ∠𝑍 then ∆𝐴𝐵𝐶 ≅ ∆𝑋𝑌𝑍
Reasons (R): Two triangles are congruent if their shapes and size are
not same.
10. Assertion (A): In ∆𝐴𝐵𝐶, 𝑖𝑓 𝐴𝐵 = 𝐴𝐶, 𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑛 ∠𝐴𝐵𝐶 = ∠𝐴𝐶𝐵.
Reasons (R): Angles opposite to equal sides in a triangle are equal.
