Statements:
1. All squares are triangles.
2. No triangle is a circle.
Conclusions:
I. No square is a circle.
II. No circle is a square.
Which conclusion(s) logically follow?
A. Only conclusion I follows
B. Only conclusion II follows
C. Both I and II follow
D. Neither I nor II follows
Answer: Option C
Solution (By JKExamLibrary)
Since all squares are inside the triangle category, and nothing in the triangle category touches the circle category, squares and circles can never overlap. Therefore, both 'No square is a circle' and 'No circle is a square' are true.
Statement:
Quality has a price tag. India is allocating plenty of funds to education.
Conclusions:
I. Quality of education in India would improve.
II. Funding alone can enhance the quality of education.
Which conclusion(s) logically follow?
Explanation:
The statement sets up a correlation between price (funds) and quality. If India is allocating funds to education, it logically follows that the intended quality would improve (I). However, the statement doesn't claim funding *alone* is sufficient without proper execution (II does not follow).
Explanation:
I does not follow: the statement does not say that all successful people are hardworking (there could be other factors). II is an assumption not directly stated. Neither follows.
