Wait, really? All pairs summing to zero? Sounds odd.

Not sure about that, seems too simplistic to me.

I’m pretty uncertain about this one. I remember orthogonality being important, but the zero-sum part is throwing me off.

I’m leaning towards True because I think orthogonal designs have to do with balancing variables, but I could be mixing it up with something else.

I think I remember something about orthogonality in designs, but I'm not sure if it specifically relates to variable pairs summing to zero.

Hmm, the wording of this question is tripping me up a bit. Let me re-read it carefully and think through the definition of an orthogonal design. I want to make sure I have the right understanding before answering.

Ah yes, I remember now! If all possible variable pairs sum to zero, then the design is considered orthogonal. That makes sense. I'll mark True for this one.

I'm a bit unsure about this one. I know orthogonal designs have some property related to variable pairs, but I can't quite recall the specifics. I'll have to think it through step-by-step.

Okay, this seems straightforward. If all variable pairs sum to zero, then the design must be orthogonal. I'm confident this is the right answer.

Definitely true. If the variable pairs don't sum to zero, then it's not an orthogonal design.
