How to use this volume
Solve the paper first, under exam conditions and against the clock. Then read the answers here and mark your own. Reading a solution before attempting the question feels productive and teaches very little, because recognising an answer is not the same as being able to write one.
Q.1
Q.1 Answer the following in one or two sentence
all 10 · 20 Marks
(a)State the special rules of figure I of categorical Syllogism[2]
Answer
The answer, in the two sentences the paper allows. The first figure has two special rules: the minor premise must be affirmative, and the major premise must be universal. They follow from the general rules once the middle term stands as the subject of the major premise and the predicate of the minor.
The scheme. Major: M is P. Minor: S is M. Conclusion: S is P.
Why the minor must be affirmative. If it were negative, the conclusion would be negative and would distribute P. P is the predicate of the major premise, so the major would also have to be negative, giving two negative premises.
Why the major must be universal. With an affirmative minor, M, its predicate, is undistributed there. So M must be distributed in the major premise, where it is the subject, which requires a universal major.
What follows. The first figure can prove all four kinds of conclusion, A, E, I and O. Its valid moods include Barbara, Celarent, Darii and Ferio.
