Consider the following arguments.

$\text{Argument 1:}$ If it does not rain or it is not foggy, then the sailing race will be held, and life-saving demonstrations will go on. If the sailing race is held, then the trophy will be awarded. The trophy was not awarded. Therefore, it rained.

$\text{Argument 2:}$ The attack will succeed only if the enemy is taken by surprise or the position is weakly defended. The enemy will not be taken by surprise unless he is overconfident. The enemy will not be overconfident if the position is weakly defended. Therefore, the attack will not succeed.

Which of the following is true?

  1. Only Argument $1$ is valid.
  2. Only Argument $2$ is valid.
  3. Both Arguments are valid.
  4. No Argument is valid.
