Use the Law of Detachment or the Law of Syllogism to determine a conclusion that follows from statements (1) and (2). If a valid conclusion does not follow, write no valid conclusion.

document.write( "(1) if IT'S A SQUARE, then IT'S A RECTANGLE.                   s->r\r\n" );
document.write( "(2) if IT'S A RECTANGLE, then IT HAS CONGRUENT DIAGONALS.      r->c\r\n" );
document.write( "                                                               ----\r\n" );
document.write( "Therefore, if IT'S A SQUARE, then IT HAS CONGRUENT DIAGONALS.  s->c\r\n" );

document.write( "That's a syllogism.  \r\n" );
