Correct answer: C. B, D and E onlyकेवल B, D और E
Explanation
'No S is P' is the E proposition. If E is true: its contrary A ('All S is P') is false (B); its contradictory I ('Some S is P') is false (D); its subaltern O ('Some S is not P') is true (E). Nothing is undetermined. Answer: B, D and E only.'कोई S, P नहीं है' E तर्कवाक्य है। E सत्य होने पर: इसका विपरीत (contrary) A ('सभी S, P हैं') असत्य है (B); इसका व्याघाती (contradictory) I ('कुछ S, P हैं') असत्य है (D); इसका उपाश्रित (subaltern) O ('कुछ S, P नहीं हैं') सत्य है (E)। कुछ भी अनिर्धारित नहीं है। उत्तर: केवल B, D और E।More Logical Reasoning questions
