Logic and Deductive Reasoning
Logic is used in deductive reasoning. As previously mentioned, deductive reasoning refers to reasoning logically from accepted statements to a conclusion. It usually starts with a general statement and proceeds to particular cases. If the given accepted statements are true, deductive reasoning always produces a correct conclusion.
