Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Informal fallacies are errors in reasoning that arise from the content of an argument, such as appealing to emotions, ad hominem attacks, and hasty generalizations. Formal fallacies, on the other hand, refer to errors in the logical structure or form of an argument. Deductive and inductive reasoning refer to the types of reasoning used in an argument, but do not relate to the occurrence of fallacies.
