Refraction by Plane Surface

Assertion (A): In case of single refraction by plane surface image and object are on the same side.
Reason (R): If object is real, image will be virtual and vice-versa.
 
Both (A) & (R) are true and the (R) is the correct explanation of the (A)
Both (A) & (R) are true but the (R) is not the correct explanation of the (A)
(A) is true but (R) is false
Both (A) and (R) are false

Solution:

For a plane refracting surface, a real object always forms a virtual image. This virtual image is formed on the same side of the plane surface as the object itself, as light rays appear to diverge from it after refraction.
