Solution

The correct option is D deduction
Option D: 'Corollary' means 'something that results from something else'.
'Deduction' means 'to reach the conclusion of something'.
This word means the same as the given italicized word. Hence option D is correct.
Option A: 'Proof' means 'evidence or argument establishing a fact'.
Option B: 'Summary' means 'a brief statement or account of the main points of something'.
Option C: 'Synopsis' means 'a brief summary or general survey of something'.
These words do not mean the same as the given word 'corollary'.
So, options A, B and C are wrong.
