Previous: Testing consistency
Could you determine whether the argument is valid/invalid if:
- Its premisses are true and its conclusion is true.
- Its premisses are consistent with its conclusion.
- Its premisses are necessarily true and its conclusion is
true.
- Its conclusion is inconsistent with its premisses.
- Its conclusion is inconsistent with its premisses, and the
premisses are consistent.
- The negation of its conclusion is inconsistent with the
negation of one of the premisses, and the argument would not be
valid without this premiss.
