Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A. B and C onlyकेवल B और C
Explanation
The conclusion is only probable and rests on similarity between d and a, b, c, so it is an analogical argument, which is a form of inductive argument (B, C). Validity and invalidity apply only to deductive arguments, so D and E do not apply. Answer: B and C only.निष्कर्ष केवल संभाव्य है और d तथा a, b, c के बीच समानता पर आधारित है, अतः यह सादृश्यमूलक युक्ति है, जो आगमनात्मक युक्ति का एक रूप है (B, C)। वैधता/अवैधता केवल निगमनात्मक युक्तियों पर लागू होती है, इसलिए D और E लागू नहीं होते। उत्तर: केवल B और C।More Logical Reasoning questions
