Let * , □ ∈ ∧ , ∨ be such that the Boolean expression ( p * ~ q ) ⇒...

Let ∗,□∈∧,∨* , □ \in { ∧ , ∨ } be such that the Boolean expression (p∗ q)⇒(p□q)( p * ~ q ) ⇒ ( p □ q ) is a tautology. Then :

Options

  1. A∗=∨,□=∧* = ∨ , □ = ∧
  2. B∗=∨,□=∨* = ∨ , □ = ∨
  3. C∗=∧,□=∨* = ∧ , □ = ∨
  4. D∗=∧,□=∧* = ∧ , □ = ∧

Correct answer

C. ∗=∧,□=∨* = ∧ , □ = ∨

Step-by-step solution

Let (p∧ q)→(p∨q)( p ∧ ~ q ) \to ( p ∨ q ) is a tautology.

All are true so it's a tautology.
