Answer 1

No theocracies are true democracies. no secular government are theocracies. Thus, some secular government are true democracies.

d. deductive invalid

Step-by-step explanation:

• The given statement is deductive as well as invalid.
• Such a process of logic in which we use the logic of two or more statements to get a final logical conclusion is known as deductive logic.
• In the given situation, we have concluded that some secular governments are true democracies on the basis of no theocracies are true democracies and no secular government are theocracies.
• So although, it is deductive logic but it is invalid as well.
