Week 12-Post 1: Other forms of Reasoning

Here are some examples of other types reasoning:

Reasoning By Analogy- Marco is physically fit because he works out 2 times everyday. Sarah also works out 2 times everyday. Therefor she will also be physically fit.

Sign Reasoning- BART is congested with a lot of Giants Fans, then there is a Giants baseball game happening today.

Casual Reasoning- If one does not maintain their car, then the car will have a higher capability of breaking down.

Reasoning by Criteria- If you want to get good grades, then you have to read this book that guides you on how to get good grades.

Reasoning by Example- You should never take a taxi anywhere because it is too expensive.I have to ride a taxi to work everyday because there is no other form of Public transportation around my home so I spend so much money on the taxi.

Inductive Reasoning- My mom has made pancakes and hot chocolate for breakfast everyday since I was a kid, so I will be getting pancakes and hot chocolate for breakfast tomorrow.

Deductive Reasoning-If one does not arrive to BART on time then one will be late to work. One missed BART. Then one will be late to work.
