Syllogisms are created by forming the three basic elements of a syllogism namely a major premise, a minor premise, and a conclusion.
There are a few different kinds of syllogism (from the Greek, meaning conclusion). The most familiar kind is called categorical syllogism. This is the kind briefly outlined above, and is at the heart of deductive reasoning, coming to a statement of fact by combining other factual statements.
Examples of categorical syllogism:
All people are mortal.
Socrates is a person.
Therefore, Socrates is mortal.
All planets exert gravity.
Earth is a planet.
Therefore, earth exerts gravity.
The major and minor premises have two terms each, and they have one term in common. In the two examples above the shared terms are people/person, and planets/planet.
The major premise is usually the larger or more encompassing premise: all people, all planets.
The conclusion has one term from each of the premises. For the above two examples they are Socrates/mortal, and earth/gravity.
It gets much more complex and subtle from here. See link for more.
People create syllogisms by forming logical arguments with two premises and a conclusion. They typically follow a standardized structure where the premises support the conclusion through deductive reasoning. Syllogisms help in analyzing and demonstrating the validity of an argument.
The premises in syllogisms can be true or false, depending on the accuracy of the statements. The validity of a syllogism is determined by the logical structure of the argument, not just the truth of the premises.
Syllogisms in deductive reasoning allow for the logical inference of a conclusion based on two premises. They provide a structured way to determine the validity of an argument by following a set of rules. This form of reasoning is useful in drawing definitive conclusions from given information.
False syllogisms refer to arguments that may appear logically valid but have a faulty or incorrect structure, leading to a false conclusion. This is often due to invalid reasoning or incorrect premises, resulting in a misleading or deceptive argument. It is important to be able to identify false syllogisms to avoid being misled by flawed logic.
A statement that is proved by deductive reasoning is a logically sound conclusion drawn from a set of premises or assumptions. Deductive reasoning uses syllogisms to derive a specific conclusion from general principles.
Rhetorical tools of logos are used to appeal to logic and reason, such as statistics, facts, and data. These tools are used to make a persuasive argument based on evidence and logical reasoning. Examples include syllogisms, analogies, and citing expert opinions.
so that they can have a clear an valid point to the argument, with proof.

The premises in syllogisms can be true or false, depending on the accuracy of the statements. The validity of a syllogism is determined by the logical structure of the argument, not just the truth of the premises.
Deductive reasoning can be portrayed in the form of syllogisms.
Syllogisms
Syllogism is a two step method of reasoning which has 2 premises and a conclusion. People use syllogisms to facilitate an argument through logical reasoning.
Invalid, no then p1 a -> b p2 b -> c c a -> c
Categorical syllogisms
Syllogisms in deductive reasoning allow for the logical inference of a conclusion based on two premises. They provide a structured way to determine the validity of an argument by following a set of rules. This form of reasoning is useful in drawing definitive conclusions from given information.
Out of the 256 syllogisms there are only 24 that are valid. Here are the valid syllogisms AAA-1, AAI-1, AAI-3, AAI-4, AEE-2, AEE-4, AEO-2, AEO-4, AII-1, AII-3, AOO-2, EAE-1, EAE-2, EAO-1, EAO-2, EAO-3, EAO-4, EIO-1, EIO-2, EIO-3, EIO-4, IAI-3, IAI-4, and OAO-3.
