Question

In the question, two statements are given, followed by two conclusions. Consider the statement to be true even if it seems to be at variance from commonly known facts. Decide which of the given conclusions, if any, follow(s) from the given statements.

Statements $:$
All poets are goats.
Some goats are trees.

Conclusions $:$
$1.$ Some poets are trees.
$2.$ Some trees are goats.

• A. Only $2$ follows
• B. Both $1$ and $2$ follow
• C. Only $1$ follows
• D. Neither $1$ nor $2$ follows

Answer 1

The correct option is A Only $2$ follows

Two Venn diagrams are possible.
Figure $:1$

Figure $:2$

From the above Venn diagrams, we can infer that conclusion $1$ does not always follow. Also, it is clear that conclusion $2$ always follows.
