The witness gave a credible statement before the court.

  • A.believable
  • B.unreliable
  • C.truthful
  • D.logical

Answer: B

The antonym of credible is unreliable.

Credible (from Latin credere, to believe) means believable and worthy of trust. A credible statement is one the court can rely on, so its opposite is a statement that is unreliable.

Believable and truthful are synonyms, not opposites. Logical describes reasoning that hangs together; a statement can be logical and still not be believed, so it is neither a synonym nor an antonym.
