Solution

The correct option is A Both Assertion and Reason are correct and Reason is the correct explanation for Assertion
An incident beam of light parallel to the base refracts from the first surface AB, hits the base AC, suffers total internal reflection, and then refracts from the side BC to emerge parallel to the base.
In this process, the image of the object is inverted.
