Assertion–Reasoning is a type of question where two statements are given:

• Assertion (A): a statement or fact

• Reason (R): an explanation related to the assertion

You have to check whether A is true or false, R is true or false, and whether R correctly explains A.

It’s commonly used in exams to test concept clarity and logical understanding, not just memorization.
