Answer:

A deductive reasoning is a type of argument in which a general premise leads to a specific conclusion. It is also known as an inductive.

The premise of a deductive argument is usually a law, rule or general principle that is accepted as true. Since the conclusion is inferred from such a true premise, it is considered valid. For this reason it is said that in deductive arguments the truth of the conclusion is inferred necessarily or with absolute necessity

example

Premise: All dogs bark. My pet is a dog.

Conclusion: Necessarily, my dog barks.
