This describes one kind of statement that can appear in a logical syllogism or argument. If a given argument A is true, then it follows that argument B must be true. It does not automatically follow that if B is true, then A must be true.

  • 'All living humans are breathing animals' is true. [If you are a living human (A) you breathe (B).
  • 'All breathing animals are therefore human' is not true. [If you breathe (B) you are a living human (A).
