Assertion : There exists an A.P. whose three terms are \(\sqrt{2}, \sqrt{3}, \sqrt{5} .\)
Reason : There exists distinct real numbers p, q, r satisfying
\(\sqrt{2}\) = A + (p – 1) d, \(\sqrt{3}\) = A + (q – 1) d,
\(\sqrt{5}\) = A + (r – 1) d.
  1. If both assertion and reason are correct and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.
  2. If both assertion and reason are true but and reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.
