SYLLOGISM

2.Possibility(1-99%)




TRICKS

When we are doing the sylogism we draw the “VENN DIAGRAM” to solve the syllogism.There are some important tools to solve syllogism which are given below:-

(i)Least touching figure should be made according to the statement given.

(ii)If all the statement are positive then conclusion will never become negative.

(iii)Definite never comes with possibility and vice versa.

     Definite          Possibility    

1-ALL:

Statement:All A are B(+ve)

Conclusion:Some A are B

                 Some B are A

All B are A is being a possibility.

Some B are not A is being a possibility.

2-SOME:

Statement:Some A are B(+ve)

Conclusion:Some B are A

All A are B is being a possibility.

All B are A is being a possibility.

Some A are not B is being a possibility.

Some B are not A is being a possibility.

3-NO:

Statement:No A are B

Conclusion:No B are A

 Some A are not B

 Some B are not A

No possibility.




In this type of questions there are five options:

  1. If conclusion first is follows
  2. If conclusion second is follows
  3. Either first and second follows
  4. Neither first nor second follows
  5. Both first and second follows
