Vedclass · Answer

(D) The contrapositive of a conditional statement $A 	o B$ is defined as $\sim B 	o \sim A$.Given statement: $[p \lor (p 	o q)] 	o (p \land \sim q)$.Here, $A = [p \lor (p 	o q)]$ and $B = (p \land \sim q)$.Step $1$: Find $\sim B = \sim (p \land \sim q) = \sim p \lor \sim (\sim q) = \sim p \lor q$.Step $2$: Find $\sim A = \sim [p \lor (p 	o q)] = \sim p \land \sim (p 	o q)$.Since $\sim (p 	o q) = p \land \sim q$, we have $\sim A = \sim p \land (p \land \sim q)$.Step $3$: Combine to form $\sim B 	o \sim A$, which is $(\sim p \lor q) 	o [\sim p \land (p \land \sim q)]$.This matches option $D$.

The contrapositive of the statement pattern $[p \lor (p \to q)] \to (p \land \sim q)$ is
