(c) Assertion is true but reason is false.
(d) Assertion is false but reason is true

1. Assertion: The left side of object appears as the right side, in image formed in a plane mirror.
Reason: This happens because of lateral inversion.

Reason: The far point of human eye is infinity.

3. Assertion: Rainbow is the natural phenomena of dispersion.
