Given below are two statements, one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other as Reason (R). Assertion (A): The sum of the infinite geometric series ∞∑n=1 (-1)n cannot be defined. Reason (R): The sum of an infinite geometric series ∞∑n=1 rn is r1 - r (or 11 - r if starting at n=0) provided that -1 < r < 1. Select the correct answer using the options given below:
- 1Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
- 2(A) is false, but (R) is true.
- 3Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).✓
- 4(A) is true, but (R) is false.
Correct answer
Both (A) and (R) are true, but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A).
