Deductive reasoning is a logical process in which a conclusion is drawn from a set of premises or statements that are assumed to be true. It involves starting with general statements or principles and applying them to specific instances to arrive at a conclusion. If the premises are true and the reasoning is valid, then the conclusion must also be true. This type of reasoning is often contrasted with inductive reasoning, which involves drawing general conclusions from specific observations or examples.
