Assertion : for two non–intersecting circles, direct common tangents subtends a right angle at either of point of intersection of circles with line segment joining the centres of circles.
Reason : If distance between the centres is more than sum of radii, then circles are non–intersecting
Reason : If distance between the centres is more than sum of radii, then circles are non–intersecting
