Deductive reasoning.

The above is an example of deductive reasoning because true statements (premises) are leading to a true conclusion.

The sentence contains the following premises that are true and precise:
1. "The entire drama team is going to the dance."
2. "Henry is on the drama team"

These premises in turn, lead to a true and logical conclusion, "Therefore, Henry is going to the dance."
