Difficulty: Easy
Correct Answer: (iii) Teachers are in class. (i) Principal is in the school.
Explanation:
Introduction / Context:The original stem had grammatical issues; applying the Recovery-First Policy, we clarify the intended rule: whenever teachers are in class, the principal is in school. That is a straightforward implication.
Given Data / Assumptions:
Concept / Approach:We must select a pair that presents the antecedent and its guaranteed consequent, not the converse.
Step-by-Step Solution:
Antecedent (iii) triggers the rule.Consequence: (i) must follow.Therefore, the correct pair is (iii) and (i).Verification / Alternative check:Converse (i) ⇒ (iii) is not guaranteed. The principal might be in school for other reasons, so (i)(iii) does not necessarily hold.
Why Other Options Are Wrong:
Common Pitfalls:Reversing the implication; thinking "principal in school" forces "teachers in class."
Final Answer:(iii) and (i)
