Answer: Law of syllogism

Explanation:

Law of Syllogism is described as

  • a logical reasoning by using transitivity.
  • a valid argument that applies deductive reasoning to get the final statement.
  • it is similar to transitive property that if a=b and b=c then a=c.

So if p, q and r were three statements such that p → q and q → r then p → r, this is called law of syllogism.

For example: When Rita gets internet Shamy gets internet. When Shamy gets internet Raj gets internet.

By law of syllogism : When Rita gets internet Raj gets internet.
