a conclusion. A type of logic in which one goes from a general statement to a specific
instance.
EX:All students eat pizza. Claire is a student at wmhs. Therefore, Claire eats pizza.
Syllogism - correct answer-An argument composed of two statements or premises (the
major and minor premises), followed by a conclusion.
Valid/ Invalid - correct answer-For any given set of premises, if the conclusion is guaranteed,
the arguments is said to be valid.
If the conclusion is not guaranteed (at least one instance in which the conclusion does not
follow), the argument is said to be invalid.

the authority is not really an authority on the facts relevant to the argument. As the audience,
allowing an irrelevant authority to add credibility to the claim being made.

Inconsistency - correct answer-holding two or more views/beliefs that cannot all be true
together.
"I never said most of the things I said." - Yogi Berra

EX: After Will said that we should put more money into health and education, Warren
responded by saying that he was surprised that Will hates our country so much that he
wants to leave it defenceless by cutting military spending.
False Dilemma - correct answer-When only two choices are presented yet more exist, or a
spectrum of possible choices exists between two extremes. "This - or - that"
Either X or Y is true.
Either X, Y, or Z is true.
You are either with God or against him.

circular argument in which the conclusion was included in the premise.
EX: Claim X assumes X is true.
Therefore, claim X is true.
