  • A
    $\hat i$
  • B
    $\hat j$
  • C
    $(\hat i + \hat j)/13$
  • D

Assertion $A$: If $A, B, C, D$ are four points on a semi-circular arc with centre at $O$ such that $|\overrightarrow{AB}|=|\overrightarrow{BC}|=|\overrightarrow{CD}|$,then $\overrightarrow{AB}+\overrightarrow{AC}+\overrightarrow{AD}=4\overrightarrow{AO}+\overrightarrow{OB}+\overrightarrow{OC}$.
Reason $R$: Polygon law of vector addition yields $\overrightarrow{AB}+\overrightarrow{BC}+\overrightarrow{CD}+\overrightarrow{AD}=2\overrightarrow{AO}$.
