Here's the Solution to this Question

Let us create a truth table for all of the following formulas and find if the following are logically equivalent.


1. f(p,q)=(\sim p \lor q) \land (\sim q) \leftrightarrow \sim(p \lor q)


   \begin{array}{||c|c||c|c|c|c|c|c||} \hline\hline p & q & \sim q & \sim p &\sim p \lor q & \sim (p \lor q) & (\sim p \lor q) \land (\sim q) & f(p,q) \\ \hline\hline 0 & 0 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1\\ \hline 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 1\\ \hline 1 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 1\\ \hline 1 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 1 &0 & 0 & 1\\ \hline\hline \end{array}

Since the formula f(p,q) is tautology, we conclude that the formulas (\sim p \lor q) \land (\sim q) and \sim(p \lor q) are logically equivalent.


2. f(p,q)=(p \land \sim q) \lor (\sim p \lor q) \leftrightarrow T


\begin{array}{||c|c||c|c|c|c|c|c||} \hline\hline p & q & \sim q &\sim p & p \land \sim q & \sim p \lor q & (p \land \sim q)\lor (\sim p \lor q )&f(p,q)\\ \hline\hline 0 & 0 & 1 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 1 & 1\\ \hline 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 1 & 1\\ \hline 1 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 0 & 1 & 1\\ \hline 1 & 1 & 0 & 0 & 0 & 1 & 1 & 1\\ \hline\hline \end{array}

Since the formula f(p,q) is tautology, we conclude that the formulas (p \land \sim q) \lor (\sim p \lor q) and T are logically equivalent.
