Discussion
Which of the following conclusion/s is/are valid based on the statements given below ?
Statement I : Some tigers are goats.
Statement II : All political leaders are intelligent.
Conclusion 1 : Some goats are not tigers.
Conclusion 2 : Some political leaders are intelligent.
Code :
Answer: B
The valid conclusion is 2 only.
'All political leaders are intelligent' implies that some political leaders are intelligent (a universal statement implies the particular, taking the class to have members), so Conclusion 2 follows.
'Some tigers are goats' tells us nothing about whether any goats lie outside the tigers; it is possible that all goats are tigers. So 'Some goats are not tigers' does not follow, and every option including Conclusion 1 is wrong.
