### 2nd PUC Basic Maths Mathematical Logic One Mark Questions and Answers

Question 1.
Write the verbal form of the following compound proposition given:
p: x is a real number
q: Mathematics is easy
r: Today is a holiday

• (p ∨ q) = x is a real number or mathematics is easy
• (~p ∧ r) = x is not a real number and maths is easy
• (q ∧ ~ p) = Maths is easy and today is not a holiday
• (p ↔ q) ∨ = r x is a real number if and only if mathematics is easy or today
is a holiday

not easy.

### 2nd PUC Basic Maths Mathematical Logic Three Marks Questions and Answers

Question 1.
If the compound proposition p → (q ∨ r) is False.
Then find the truth values of p, q and r.
Given p → (q ∨ r) is False
⇒ p is true and (q v r) is. False
p is true and ⇒ q is False and r is False
∴ p = T,q = F,r = F.

Question 2.
If the truth value of the proposition (p ∧ q) → (r ∨ ~ s) is false then find the truth val­ues of p, q, r and s.
Given: (p ∧ q) → (r ∨ ~ s) is False
T → F = F
∴ p ∧ q is true and r v~ s is False
⇒ (p is true and q is true) and (r is false and ∼ s is false)
⇒ p = T, q = T, r = F, s = T.

Question 3.
Construct the truth table for the following
(i) (~ pA ~q)

 p q ~ p ~q ~ pA ~q T T F F F T F F T F F T T F F F F T T T

(ii) ~(p → q)

 p q p → q ~(p → q) T T T F T F F T F T T F F F T F

(iii) (p ∨ q) ∧ ∼ p

 p q p∨q ~p (p∨q) ∧~p T T T F F T F T F F F T T T T F F F T F

(iv) (p ∨ q) ↔ (q ∧ p)

 p q p∨q q∧p (p∨q)↔ (q~p) T T T T T T F T F F F T T F F F F F F T

(v) ∼ p (p∧∼q)

 p q ∼p ∼q p∧∼q ∼p ↔ (p∧∼q) T F F F F T T F F T T F F T T F F F F F T T F F

Question 4.
Write the converse, Inverse and contrapositive of the following,
(i) If x ∈ A ∩ B then x ∈ A and x ∈ B
Given in symbols = p →(q ∧ r)
Converse = (q ∧ r) → p
If x ∈ A & x ∈ B Then x ∈ A∩B
Inverse =~ p → ~ (q ∧ r)
~ p → (~q∨ ~ r)
If x∉A∩B then x ∉ q or x ∉ B
Contrapositive =~ (q ∧ r) → ~ p
If x∈ A or x∉B Then x∉ A∩B

(ii) If the questions are easy then students score better marks.
Converse:- If students score better marks then the questions are easy.
Inverse:- If questions are not easy then student do not score better marks. Contrapositive:- If the students do not score better marks then the questions are not easy.

(iii) If x2 =y2 then x = y.
Convers = If x = y then x2= y2
Inverse = If x2 ≠ y2 then x ≠ y
Contrapositive = If x ≠ y then x2 ≠ y2
