By definition RIPv1 does not support VLSM.
Hence routes are sent out (subject to conditions) without the mask..i.e
subnet 10.2.0.0 & subnet 10.3.0.0
VLSM only came into play with RIPv2.
Yes it does send it (please check my last post), as 10.2.0.0 & 10.3.0.0
without a mask.
So the receiving router needs to select which mask to use, & i believe it
does this based on the mask thats configured on the receiving interface (/24
here).
So in this case a /24 mask is assumed.
Hence you will see:

10.2.0.0/24 on R2
10.3.0.0/24 on R1

Now there are quite a few rules regarding RIPv1 and autosummary.
Jeff Doyle covers RIPv1 v well.

However, again, to reiterate Tyson Scott, you really dont need to concern
yourself with this stuff unless you use RIPv1 in production ( I would hope
not). Its not in the lab.

The proof of the pudding is in the eating.
I ran a similar topology with 10.1.1.1/24 on R1 and 10.2.2.2/24 on R2.
Check the RIB:

R1#sh ip ro rip
     10.0.0.0/24 is subnetted, 6 subnets
R 10.2.2.0 [120/1] via 10.1.12.2, 00:00:06, Serial0/0.12
<--------------------------------------------
R 10.1.200.0 [120/1] via 10.1.12.2, 00:00:06, Serial0/0.12

R2#sh ip ro rip
     10.0.0.0/24 is subnetted, 4 subnets
R 10.1.1.0 [120/1] via 10.1.12.1, 00:00:12, Serial0/0.21
<-------------------------------------

Its all based on the assumption of what mask to apply to the route coming
in.
You can see that R1 & R2 decided upon apply a /24 mask.
