Solution

The correct option is C Statements P and R are true
As value of resistance(R) is directly proportional to length of resistance, so by increasing the length of resistance the value of resistance increases.
Statement P is correct
As value of resistance is inversely proportional to area so by increasing the area the value of resistance decreases.
So statement R is also correct.
Option c is correct answer based on above conclusions.
