Draw the resonance structures of $NO_2$, state its shape, and indicate the bond angle and bond length.

Given below are two statements :
Statement $I$ : Experimentally determined oxygen-oxygen bond lengths in the $O_3$ are found to be same and the bond length is greater than that of a $O=O$ (double bond) but less than that of a single $(O-O)$ bond.
Statement $II$ : The strong lone pair-lone pair repulsion between oxygen atoms is solely responsible for the fact that the bond length in ozone is smaller than that of a double bond $(O=O)$ but more than that of a single bond $(O-O)$.
In the light of the above statements,choose the correct answer from the options given below:

Resonance in $X_2Y$ can be represented as shown in the image. The enthalpy of formation of $X_2Y$ $(X \equiv X(g) + \frac{1}{2} Y = Y(g) \rightarrow X_2Y(g))$ is $80 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$. The magnitude of resonance energy of $X_2Y$ is $......... \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$ (nearest integer value). Given: Bond energies of $X \equiv X, X=X, Y=Y$ and $X=Y$ are $940, 410, 500$ and $602 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$ respectively. Valence $X: 3, Y: 2$.
