Solution

## The correct option is E Only conclusion I followsMediate term of the following statements No line is a square. (E-type) Some square are circle. (i-type) E + I →OR−type  Some circles are not lines. In the statement. Some squares are circles. Conversion Some circles are squares No circle is a triangle Conversion No triangle is a circle Now, mediate term of the statements is  No triangle is a circle. (E-type) Some circles are square. (I-type) E+I→OR Some square are not triangle  Conclusion I follows Only conclusion I follows
