Statements: No circles are squares. Some squares are triangles.

Conclusions: I. Some triangles are not circles.

II. No triangle is a circle.

AOnly I follows

BOnly Il follows

CBoth I and Il follow

DNeither I nor Il follows

Answer:

A. Only I follows

Read Explanation:

Let’s analyze the statements:

Statements:

  1. No circles are squares → (Circles ∩ Squares = ∅)

  2. Some squares are triangles → (Some Squares overlap with Triangles)

Now evaluate conclusions:

Conclusion I: Some triangles are not circles

  • Some squares are triangles.

  • Those squares are definitely not circles (since no square is a circle).

  • So, at least some triangles (those squares) are not circles.

✔️ Conclusion I follows


Conclusion II: No triangle is a circle

  • We only know some squares are triangles, not all triangles.

  • It is possible that some triangles (outside squares) could still be circles.

  • So this conclusion is not निश्चित / not guaranteed.

Conclusion II does not follow


Final Answer:

Only Conclusion I follows.
