Detailed Solution

Given 2 statements.
Assertion: The diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.
Reason: If the diagonals of a parallelogram are equal and intersect at right angles, then the parallelogram is a square.
So assertion (A) is true as the diagonals of a parallelogram bisect each other.
As, square is a special case of parallelogram if the diagonals are equal and bisect at right-angle.
So reason (R) is true.
But reason (R) is not an explanation of statement assertion (A).
Hence, option 2 is correct.
