Consider

Statement-1: (p∧∼q)∧(∼p∧q)(p \wedge \sim q) \wedge(\sim p \wedge q) is a fallacy.

Statement-2: (p→q)↔(∼q→∼p)(p \rightarrow q) \leftrightarrow(\sim q \rightarrow \sim p) is a tautology.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
Statement-1 is true; Statement-2 is true; Statement-2 is not a correct explanation for Statement-1.
Option B is correct because Statement-1 is a fallacy, and Statement-2 is a tautology, but Statement-2 does not explain Statement-1.
