Reflection on Chapter 8 Ethos, Pathos, Logos

In the reading it say that ethos, appeals from character; Pathos, appeals to emotion; and logos, appeals to reason. The relationship between all of these is that it is to be included in your writing. They all are connected like in the rhetorical triangle from the book:"Word/Logos, Audience/Pathos, Author/ Ethos." (see page 200 of Inquiry to Academic Writing)  It is important to use this in your writing because you need all three for a reader to connect to, character, emotion, and reason are all a big part of presenting something to someone.
