Question 1 of 10
Analytic Thinking SkillsKinds of Bridges
Engineers classify bridges by the way they carry their loads. All suspension bridges hang their decks from main cables draped over towers, and every suspension bridge has massive anchorages holding the ends of those cables. Cable-stayed bridges also hang their decks from cables, but no cable-stayed bridge has such anchorages. Most arch bridges are built of concrete or steel, although some older ones are built entirely of stone. Every beam bridge rests on supports placed beneath its deck.
Directions: Read the facts above. Then judge each statement using only those facts. Choose True if the statement must follow from the facts. Choose False if the statement conflicts with the facts. Choose Indeterminable if the facts are not enough to decide either way.
Based only on the facts above, this statement is: Every bridge that has massive cable anchorages is a suspension bridge.
