Question

Determine whether the following arguments are best interpreted as being inductive or deductive. Also state the criteriayou use in reaching your decision (i.e.. the presence of indicator words, the nature of the inferential link between premisesand conclusion, or the character or form of argumentation).Because triangle A is congruent with triangle B, and triangle A is isosceles. it follows that triangle B is isosceles.

Answer 1

Congruent triangles has the two angles of one of their sides equal

This means if a triangle side has angles of 30 and 60 degrees the other triangle also has 30 and 60 degrees.

An isoceles triangle will have 2 angles of the same degree. Thus, If triangle A is isoceles then, two angles add up to make the third equal to one these two.

We should remember that angles inside a triangle always add up to 180ª

2a +b = 180

a + b = 180 - a

if the other triangle has 2 angles mathing the isoceles triangle, then it is also an isoceles.
