Rhetorical Triangle

The Rhetorical Triangle is a useful framework for understanding effective communication. It consists of three key elements: Ethos (credibility), Pathos (emotional appeal), and Logos (logical argument). Ethos refers to the speaker's trustworthiness and authority; Pathos involves connecting with the audience's emotions; and Logos focuses on the use of logical reasoning and evidence. Together, these elements help convey a message persuasively. By considering all three aspects, speakers and writers can engage their audience more effectively and enhance their overall communication impact.
