Srestha Choudhary answered |
It is necessary to provide evidence or logical reasoning that supports the truth of the statement. This can be done through various means, such as conducting experiments, analyzing data, presenting empirical evidence, or providing logical arguments based on facts and principles. The proof should be objective and verifiable, so that it can be accepted by others as valid and reliable. Additionally, it is important to consider counterarguments and address any potential objections or alternative explanations to strengthen the proof.

Notation: Negation is denoted by the symbol ~
Bi-conditional:
Let, p and q are two simple propositions. If p and q both the propositions are either True or False then Bi-conditional gives the output as True otherwise if anyone is False then the output is False.
Notation: Bi-conditional is denoted by the symbol ⇔
Step-2: Truth Table:
The truth table is used to perform logical operations on given propositions. It is used to check whether the given propositional statement is either True or False. Using some of the logical operations like AND, OR, NOR, Conditional, and Bi-conditional.
Given p and q are both simple propositions
The truth table for p⇔~q is given below
pq~qp⇔~q
TT F F
TFT T
FTF T
FFT F
TT F F
TFT T
FTF T
FFT F
Where T is True and F is False.
From the above table, we can conclude p⇔~q is True if p is False and q is True.
Hence option 'C' is the correct answer.

Q) ∨ (p ∧ r) is logically equivalent to the proposition (p ∨ r) ∧ (q ∨ r).
To show this, we can use a truth table:
| p | q | r | p ∨ q | p ∧ r | (p ∨ q) ∨ (p ∧ r) | (p ∨ r) ∧ (q ∨ r) |
|---|---|---|-------|-------|-------------------|-------------------|

| F | T | F | T | F | T | T |
| F | F | T | T | F | F | F |
| F | F | F | F | F | F | F |
As we can see from the truth table, the two propositions have the same truth values for all possible truth values of p, q, and r. Therefore, they are logically equivalent.

Manish Aggarwal answered |
The correct option is D p ∧ (∼q ∧∼r)
We know that, ∼(p → q)≡ p ∧ (∼q)
Also, negation of (q ∨ r) is (∼q∧∼r)
So, ∼(p→(q ∨ r))≡ p ∧(∼q∧∼r)
We know that, ∼(p → q)≡ p ∧ (∼q)
Also, negation of (q ∨ r) is (∼q∧∼r)
So, ∼(p→(q ∨ r))≡ p ∧(∼q∧∼r)

Bhavana Gupta answered |
Explanation:
Contrapositive:
The contrapositive of a statement is formed by negating both the hypothesis and conclusion of the original statement and switching their order.
Given Statement:
2x + 3 = 9 → x ≠ 4
Contrapositive:
x = 4 → 2x + 3 ≠ 9
Explanation:
- The original statement states that if 2x + 3 = 9, then x is not equal to 4.
- The contrapositive of this statement states that if x is equal to 4, then 2x + 3 is not equal to 9.
- Therefore, the correct contrapositive of the given statement is option B: x = 4, 2x + 3 ≠ 9.
Conclusion:
The contrapositive of the given statement is correctly represented in option B.

Proposition in Logic
Definition of Proposition:
A proposition is a statement that is either true or false.
Examples of Statements:
- Logic is an interesting subject.
- I am a lion.
- A half-open door is half closed.
- A triangle is a circle and 10 is a prime number.
Explanation:
Out of the four given statements, only option 'D' is a proposition because it can be evaluated as either true or false. A triangle cannot be a circle and 10 is not a prime number, so the statement is false.
Option 'A' is not a proposition because it is a subjective statement and cannot be evaluated as true or false. It may be interesting to some people and not to others.
Option 'B' is not a proposition because it is a false statement. The speaker is not actually a lion.
Option 'C' is not a proposition because it is an ambiguous statement. The meaning of "half-open" can vary depending on the context, so it cannot be evaluated as true or false.
Therefore, the only proposition in the given options is option 'D'.

Samridhi Sarkar answered |
Explanation:
A statement is a declarative sentence that can be either true or false. It gives some information or makes some assertion about the subject. The subject can be a person, place, thing, or idea. Let's analyze the given options to identify which one is a statement.
a) 2 is the smallest prime number - This is a declarative sentence that gives some information about the number 2. It is a statement.
b) Aarushi is a pretty girl - This is also a declarative sentence that makes an assertion about a person named Aarushi. It is a statement.
c) What are you doing? - This is an interrogative sentence that asks a question. It is not a statement.
d) Oh! It is amazing - This is an exclamatory sentence that expresses a strong emotion. It is not a statement.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 'A' - 2 is the smallest prime number, which is a statement.

Contrapositive of p→q is ∼q→∼p.
∴ Contrapositive of (p∨q)⇒r is ∼r⇒∼(p∨q) i.e. ∼r⇒(∼p∧∼q).
∴ Contrapositive of (p∨q)⇒r is ∼r⇒∼(p∨q) i.e. ∼r⇒(∼p∧∼q).
If p→(q∨r) is false , then the truth values of p , q and r, are respectively- a)T,F,F
- b)F,T,T
- c)F,F,F
- d)T,T,T
Correct answer is option 'A'. Can you explain this answer?

Geetika Mishra answered |
p∧q means statement p and q
=> The sky is blue and milk is white.
The component statements are:
p: You are wet when it rains.
q: You are wet when you are in river.
The compound statement of these component statements using appropriate connective is:- a)You are not wet when you are in river or it rains.
- b)You are wet when you are in river and it rains.
- c)You are wet when it rains and you are in a river
- d)You are wet when it rains or you are in a river.

Suhani Dangarh answered |
Yes d is correct 1st one not is written 2nd one says you are wet only when you are in river and that time rain comes 3rd says you are wet when rain and you must be in river at that time so 4th is correct which says you are wet either when you are in river or it rains

The inverse of p ⇒ ∼q is ∼p ⇒ q
The contrapositive of ∼p ⇒ q is ∼q ⇒ p. [∴ Contrapositive of p ⇒ q is∼q ⇒ p.]
The contrapositive of ∼p ⇒ q is ∼q ⇒ p. [∴ Contrapositive of p ⇒ q is∼q ⇒ p.]

Logical Equivalence Explanation:
Logical equivalence means two statements have the same truth values in all possible scenarios. In this case, we are looking for a statement that is logically equivalent to ∼(p↔q).
Option Analysis:
a) (p∨q)∨(q∧p)
This statement is not logically equivalent to ∼(p↔q) as it involves both OR and AND operations.
b) (p∨q)∨(q∧¬p)
This statement is not logically equivalent to ∼(p↔q) as it has a negation on p which is not present in the original statement.
c) (p∨¬q)∨(q∧¬p)
This statement is logically equivalent to ∼(p↔q) as it represents the exclusive OR operation. The exclusive OR (XOR) operation is true when the inputs are different, which is the same as the biconditional statement.
d) none of these
This option is incorrect as we have found a logically equivalent statement in option c.
Therefore, the correct answer is option c) (p∨¬q)∨(q∧¬p).

- c)A rectangle is not a quadrilateral and its opposite sides are equal.
- d)A rectangle is a figure and its opposite sides are of different length.
