    without changing the meaning of the sentence. The lawyer presented a cogent argument in favor of his client.
    A feeble Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B vague Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C convincing Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D lengthy Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Cogent means clear, logical, and convincing in reasoning."Convincing" closely matches this meaning, making it the best alternative."Feeble" and "vague" are opposites of "cogent.""Lengthy" refers to the extent of an argument, not its persuasiveness.
