"Incapable" in formal logic signifies that two things are mutually exclusive. This means that the occurrence of one thing excludes the possibility of the other. This term is used to indicate that two events or conditions cannot happen at the same time or coexist. In the context of logical reasoning, understanding the concept of mutual exclusivity is important in making accurate deductions and drawing valid conclusions based on the given information. The other options are not correct because: A. Evidence - "Incapable" does not directly signify evidence in formal logic. B. Necessity - "Incapable" does not indicate necessity in formal logic. D. Conclusion - While "Incapable" can lead to a conclusion in logical reasoning, it specifically refers to the mutual exclusivity of two possibilities.
