Given below are two statements : one is labeled as Assertion AAA and the other is labeled as Reason RRR.

Assertion AAA: For a simple microscope, the angular size of the object equals the angular size of the image.

Reason RRR: Magnification is achieved as the small object can be kept much closer to the eye than 25cm25\mathrm{cm}25cm and hence it subtends a large angle. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:
