Question

Examine whether the following statement pattern is a tautology or a contradiction or a contingency.

∼ (∼ q ∧ p) ∧ q

Sum

Solution

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

The entries in the last column of the above truth table are neither all T nor all F.
∴ ∼ (∼ q ∧ p) ∧ q is a contingency.
