What can you conclude from the given true statements? If there is a full moon tonight, the dog will howl. The moon is full tonight.

I conclude that the statements have nothing to do with geometry.

The statements are also not always true.

logic has plenty to do with geometry...

while the statements are certainly not always true, the exercise stipulates that for the purposes of logical argument, they are true right now. So,

I can conclude that the dog will howl.

To draw a conclusion from the given true statements, we can use a logical deduction. Let's break down the statements:

1. "If there is a full moon tonight, the dog will howl."
This statement establishes a conditional relationship between the occurrence of a full moon and the dog's howling. It implies that whenever there is a full moon, the dog will howl.

2. "The moon is full tonight."
This statement provides information about the current state of the moon, indicating that it is indeed full.

Based on these statements, we can conclude that the dog will howl tonight. Since the second statement confirms that the moon is full tonight (the condition mentioned in the first statement), we can infer that the dog will follow its pattern and howl as a result.

Using logical deduction, we can reason that if both statements are true, then the conclusion must also be true.
