Question
Determine the truth value of the following statement.
If 9 > 1 then x2 − 2x + 1 = 0 for x = 1
Solution
Let p : 9 > 1
q : x2 – 2x + 1 = 0 for x = 1
The truth values of p and q are T and T respectively. The given statement in symbolic form is p → q.
∴ p → q ≡ T → T ≡ T
∴ Truth value of the given statement is T.

Consider the following two statements.
Statement p:
The value of sin 120° can be divided by taking θ = 240° in the equation 2 sin `θ/2` = `sqrt(1 + sin θ) - sqrt(1 - sinθ)`.
Statement q:
The angles A, B, C and D of any quadrilateral ABCD satisfy the equation `cos(1/2(A + C)) + cos(1/2(B + D))` = 0
Then the truth values of p and q are respectively.
