Question

What does it mean to cite textual evidence and how
does evidence help an argument?

Answer 1

Show where you found your evidence

Step-by-step explanation:

Show where you found your evidence at and how does your evidence help in argument. Like who was the first president of the United States. You looked it up, find you evidence to help you in argument, and explain where you got that evidence. Makes a little sense?

Answer 2

It means to give credit to the author and source. It helps in an argument because when you're trying to prove a point, you have to have factual evidence that proves you're right.
