Directions: Sometimes we conclude about characteristics of a general phenomenon by studying or analyzing characteristics of a particular phenomenon. Below are given such inductive arguments. The generalization is given first, followed by a particular statement. You have to find out whether the numbered particular statement strongly confirms, vaguely hints, contradicts, or is irrelevant to the generalisation. Read the question below and answer accordingly.Generalisation: A red sun in the evening means good weather the next day.
