corollary
It follows logically
A corollary is something that naturally follows from something else.
In logic and mathematics, it's a proposition that flows directly from one already proven, requiring little additional demonstration.
More broadly, a corollary is any natural consequence or accompaniment: Increased screen time has depression as its corollary among teens.
The word often appears with "to" or "of": a corollary to the main theorem, a corollary of success.
