Vedclass · Answer

(D) The contrapositive of a conditional statement $P 	o Q$ is $\sim Q 	o \sim P$.Here, $P = [p \lor (p 	o q)]$ and $Q = (p \land \sim q)$.First, find $\sim Q$: $\sim (p \land \sim q) = \sim p \lor \sim (\sim q) = \sim p \lor q$.Next, find $\sim P$: $\sim [p \lor (p 	o q)] = \sim p \land \sim (p 	o q) = \sim p \land \sim (\sim p \lor q) = \sim p \land (p \land \sim q)$.Thus, the contrapositive $\sim Q 	o \sim P$ is $(\sim p \lor q) 	o [\sim p \land (p \land \sim q)]$.Comparing this with the options, option $(D)$ is the correct form.

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