Answers & Solutions:

1) Answer (C)

Given that no village is a forest. So, the shaded area can never be a village. Hence, some rivers can never be villages. So, conclusion 3 is implied.

Irrespective of the diagram, conclusions I and II are universally complimentary ie. one of the two always has to be implied but both can’t be true at the same time. Hence we use “either” and “or”.

2) Answer (D)

We can draw many scenarios using Venn diagrams. Conclusion IV holds in every case. So, it is implied.

Irrespective of the diagram, conclusions I and III are universally complimentary ie. one of the two always has to be implied but both can’t be true at the same time. Hence we use “either” and “or”.

3) Answer (A)

No goat is a rat. Hence, as shown in the diagram, none of rats’ subset (dogs) are goats. Hence, conclusion II is implied.

Irrespective of the diagram, conclusions I and IV are universally complimentary ie. one of the two always has to be implied but both can’t be true at the same time. Hence we use “either” and “or”.

4) Answer (C)

We use elimination to find an exception to the generality of the conclusions. Thus we prove they are not implied. The diagram below satisfies all the statements but contradicts the conclusions I, III and IV. Since we found an exception, the conclusions are not true in “every” case. Thus they are not implied.

We can draw many scenarios using Venn diagrams. Conclusion II holds in every case. So, it is implied.

5) Answer (B)

We use elimination to find an exception to the generality of the conclusions. Thus we prove they are not implied. The diagram below satisfies all the statements but contradicts conclusion I. Since we found an exception, the conclusion is not true in “every” case. Thus it is not implied.

We can draw many scenarios using Venn diagrams. Conclusions II, III and IV hold in every case. So, they are implied.

6) Answer (E)

We use elimination to find an exception to the generality of the conclusions. Thus we prove they are not implied. The diagram below satisfies all the statements but contradicts all the conclusions. Since we found an exception, the conclusions are not true in “every” case. Thus they are not implied.

7) Answer (B)

We use elimination to find an exception to the generality of the conclusions. Thus we prove they are not implied. The diagram below satisfies all the statements but contradicts the conclusion I. Since we found an exception, the conclusion is not true in “every” case. Thus it is not implied.

We can draw many scenarios using Venn diagrams. Conclusion II holds in every case. So, it is implied.

8) Answer (D)

Use the left diagram (3 circles on the left) to contradict conclusion I.
Use the right diagram (3 circles on the right) to contradict conclusion II.

We use elimination to find an exception to the generality of the conclusions. Thus we prove they are not implied. The diagrams above satisfy all the statements but contradict both the conclusions. Since we found an exception, the conclusions are not true in “every” case. Thus they are not implied.

9) Answer (C)

Irrespective of the diagram, conclusions I and II are universally complimentary ie. one of the two always has to be implied but both can’t be true at the same time. Hence we use “either” and “or”.

10) Answer (E)

We can draw many scenarios using Venn diagrams that satisy the statements and check for the conclusions. Conclusions I and II hold in every case. So, they are implied.

11) Answer (C)

Irrespective of the diagram, conclusions I and II are universally complimentary ie. one of the two always has to be implied but both can’t be true at the same time. Hence we use “either” and “or”.

12) Answer (B)

We use elimination to find an exception to the generality of the conclusions. Thus we prove they are not implied. The diagram above satisfies all the statements but contradicts all the conclusions except I. Since we found an exception, the conclusions are not true in “every” case. Thus they are not implied.

We can draw many scenarios that satisfy the statements using Venn diagrams and check for the validity of the conclusions. Conclusion I holds in every case. So, it is implied.

13) Answer (D)

We use elimination to find an exception to the generality of the conclusions. Thus we prove they are not implied. The diagram above satisfies all the statements but contradicts the conclusions II and III. Since we found an exception, the conclusions are not true in “every” case. Thus they are not implied.

We can draw many scenarios that satisfy the statements using Venn diagrams and check for the validity of the conclusions. Conclusions I and IV hold in every case. So, they are implied.

14) Answer (A)

We can draw many scenarios that satisfy the statements using Venn diagrams and check for the validity of the conclusions. Conclusion III holds in every case. So, it is implied.
Irrespective of the diagram, conclusions II and IV are universally complimentary ie. one of the two always has to be implied but both can’t be true at the same time. Hence we use “either” and “or”.

15) Answer (E)

We use elimination to find an exception to the generality of the conclusions. Thus we prove they are not implied. The diagram above satisfies all the statements but contradicts the conclusion IV. Since we found an exception, the conclusion is not true in “every” case. Thus it is not implied.

We can draw many scenarios that satisfy the statements using Venn diagrams and check for the validity of the conclusions. Conclusions I, II and III hold in every case. So, they are implied.
Since, this is not mentioned in any of the options, we choose (e) None of these as the answer.
