Explanation
This is the standard textbook definition (Hurley, A Concise Introduction to Logic): the intension (connotation) of a term is the set of attributes it conveys, and the extension (denotation) is the class of things to which it applies. For 'triangle', intension = three-sided closed plane figure; extension = all actual triangles. Both statements are therefore correct, so the answer is option 1. The coaching key prints D (option 4), which contradicts this definition.यह पाठ्यपुस्तक की मानक परिभाषा है (हर्ली, A Concise Introduction to Logic): पद का आशयार्थ (connotation) उन गुणों का समुच्चय है जिन्हें वह व्यक्त करता है, और विस्तारार्थ (denotation) उन वस्तुओं का वर्ग है जिन पर वह लागू होता है। 'त्रिभुज' के लिए आशयार्थ = तीन भुजाओं वाली बंद समतल आकृति; विस्तारार्थ = सभी वास्तविक त्रिभुज। अतः दोनों कथन सही हैं और उत्तर विकल्प 1 है। कोचिंग कुंजी में D (विकल्प 4) छपा है, जो इस परिभाषा के विरुद्ध है।More Logical Reasoning questions
