Tetrahedron $ABCD$ has side lengths $AB = CD = 12$. These edges are perpendicular to each other. Let $E$ and $F$ be the midpoints of $AB$ and $CD$ respectively. Given that $EF = 10$ and $EF$ is perpendicular to both $AB$ and $CD$,find the volume of the tetrahedron $ABCD$.

If $\left(\frac{9}{4}, \frac{5}{4}, \frac{15}{4}\right)$ is the centroid of a tetrahedron whose vertices are $(a, 2, 1), (1, b, 4), (4, 0, c)$ and $(1, 1, 7)$, then

Assertion $(A):$ If $(-1,3,2)$ and $(5,3,2)$ are respectively the orthocentre and circumcentre of a triangle, then $(3,3,2)$ is its centroid.
Reason $(R):$ Centroid of the triangle divides the line segment joining the orthocentre and the circumcentre in the ratio $1: 2$.
