Among the statements: (S1): ((p ∨ q) ⇒ r) ⇔ (p ⇒ r) (S2): ((p ∨ q)...

Among the statements:

(S1):((p∨q)⇒r)⇔(p⇒r)\left(S1\right): \left(\left(p ∨ q\right) ⇒ r\right) ⇔ \left(p ⇒ r\right)

\left(S2\right): \left(\left(p ∨ q\right) ⇒ r\right) ⇔ \left(\left(p ⇒ r\right) ∨ \left(q ⇒ r\right)\right)

Options

  1. AOnly (S1)( S1 ) is a tautology
  2. BNeither (S1)( S1 ) nor (S2)( S2 ) is a tautology
  3. COnly (S2)( S2 ) is a tautology
  4. DBoth (S1)( S1 ) and (S2)( S2 ) are tautologies

Correct answer

B. Neither (S1)( S1 ) nor (S2)( S2 ) is a tautology

Step-by-step solution

We have,

(S1):((p∨q)⇒r)⇔(p⇒r)\left(S1\right): \left(\left(p ∨ q\right) ⇒ r\right) ⇔ \left(p ⇒ r\right)

For S1:IfpisF,qisT,risFS1: \text{If}p\text{is}F, q\text{is}T, r\text{is}F, then

\left(\left(p ∨ q\right) ⇒ r\right) ≡ F</p><p>(p⇒r)≡T</p><p>\left(p ⇒ r\right) ≡ T

So, \left[\left(\left(p ∨ q\right) ⇒ r\right) ⇔ \left(p ⇒ r\right)\right] ≡ F</p><p>then</p><p>thenF ⇒ F ≡ F</p><p>i.e.</p><p>i.e.S1isnotatautology</p><p>(S2):((p∨q)⇒r)⇔((p⇒r)∨(q⇒r))is not a tautology</p><p>\left(S2\right): \left(\left(p ∨ q\right) ⇒ r\right) ⇔ \left(\left(p ⇒ r\right) ∨ \left(q ⇒ r\right)\right)

S2:IfpisT,qisF,risFS2: IfpisT, qisF, risF, then

\left(\left(p ∨ q\right) ⇒ r\right) ≡ F</p><p>((p⇒r)∨(q⇒r))≡T</p><p>\left(\left(p ⇒ r\right) ∨ \left(q ⇒ r\right)\right) ≡ T

then \left(\left(p ∨ q\right) ⇒ r\right) ⇔ \left(\left(p ⇒ r\right) ∨ \left(q ⇒ r\right)\right) ≡ F</p><p>i.e.</p><p>i.e.S2 is not a tautology
