Verify whether the following compound propositions are tautologies or contradictions or contingency.
(p → q) ↔ (¬p → q)
Solution
| p | q | ¬p | p → q | ¬p → q | (p → q) ↔ (¬p → q) |
| T | T | F | T | T | T |
| T | F | F | F | T | F |
| F | T | T | T | T | T |
| F | F | T | T | F | F |
The entries in the last column are a combination of T and F.
