What would be the purpose of using ethos in your paper?

• When you provide a statistic and then explain how that statistic proves your point you persuade your audience to find your reasoning sensible.

• When you include an expert in the field it gives you credibility to speak about something you yourself are not an expert in.

• When you tell a personal story that attaches you to the argument you make the audience believe it is important not only to them but to you as well.
