High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! A logical extreme is a logical construct that is often useful in testing hypotheses. The use of a logical extreme is often the simplest way to disprove a hypothesis. Quite simply, a logical extreme is the statement of an extreme or even preposterous position that is nonetheless consistent with the hypothesis being tested. Thus, if the logical extreme position is obviously untrue, then the hypothesis is disproven, at least in its stated form. As an example: Let us say that you have three different locations in the physical world: point A, point B and point C. Let us say that your hypothesis is that the shortest distance between points A and C is always passes through point B (i.e. the shortest distance A ----> C is always equal to A---->B----->C).
