Question 3
The fallacy where a word is used in multiple senses is called equivocation. Ad hominem attacks the person, begging the question assumes the conclusion, and circular reasoning uses the conclusion as a premise. So the correct option is the one labeled "equivocation".
The fallacy of appealing to authority uses an authority's claim without demonstrating its validity. Ad hominem attacks the person, equivocation uses a word in multiple senses, and false dilemma presents a false choice. So the correct option is "appeal to authority".
