$A$ vector $\vec{A}$ is rotated by a small angle $\Delta \theta$ radian $(\Delta \theta \ll 1)$ to get a new vector $\vec{B}$. In that case,$|\vec{B} - \vec{A}|$ is

Assertion $A$: If $A, B, C, D$ are four points on a semi-circular arc with centre at $O$ such that $|\overrightarrow{AB}|=|\overrightarrow{BC}|=|\overrightarrow{CD}|$,then $\overrightarrow{AB}+\overrightarrow{AC}+\overrightarrow{AD}=4\overrightarrow{AO}+\overrightarrow{OB}+\overrightarrow{OC}$.
Reason $R$: Polygon law of vector addition yields $\overrightarrow{AB}+\overrightarrow{BC}+\overrightarrow{CD}+\overrightarrow{AD}=2\overrightarrow{AO}$.
