WITH 100% CORRECT ANSWERS.
confusing necessary and sufficient conditions correct answers happens when you assume a
necessary condition of an event is sufficient for the event to occur
slippery slope correct answers commits this fallacy when they claim, without sufficient reason,
that a seemingly harmless action will lead to a disastrous outcome
ad hominem correct answers rejects another person's argument or claim by attacking the person
rather than the claim
tu quoque correct answers rejects another person's argument or claim because that person fails to
practice what he or she preaches
straw man correct answers arguer sets up a wimpy version of the opponent's position and tries to
score points by knocking it down
post hoc (false cause) correct answers occurs when the arguer assumes without reason that
because one event precedes another, that the first event was the cause of the second
hasty generalization correct answers occurs when the arguer draws a general overall conclusion
from a sample that is either biased or too small (small to all)
sweeping generalization correct answers reasoning goes from some or many to all; it moves from
the sweeping, stereotypical conclusion back to the individual
false dichotomy (either-or) correct answers arguer sets up situation so it looks like there are only
two choices; then, they eliminate one so it seems that there is only option (arguer wanted us to
pick that one in the first place)
invalid deduction: affirming the consequent correct answers If A then B
B

If I have the flu, then I'll have a fever
I have a fever

phrase that is important to the argument
