![**Simplification of Logical Expressions**
**Objective:** Simplify the expression \(\neg \neg s \land \top\) to \(s\).
**Instructions:**
1. Select a law from the provided list on the right to apply to the expression.
**Current Expression:**
\[
\neg \neg s \land \top
\]
**Laws Available:**
- **Distributive:**
- \((a \land b) \lor (a \land c) \equiv a \land (b \lor c)\)
- \((a \lor b) \land (a \lor c) \equiv a \lor (b \land c)\)
- **Commutative:**
- \(a \lor b \equiv b \lor a\)
- \(a \land b \equiv b \land a\)
- **Complement:**
- \(a \lor \neg a \equiv \top\)
- \(a \land \neg a \equiv \bot\)
- **Identity:**
- \(a \land \top \equiv a\)
- \(a \lor \bot \equiv a\)
- **Double Negation:**
- \(\neg \neg a \equiv a\)
**Diagram Description:**
The image contains a table that lists different logical laws and their symbolic representations, which are used to simplify logical expressions systematically. The goal of the exercise is to use these laws to transform the given expression into a simpler form.
The expression to be simplified is shown on the left side with a prompt to select a law from the right side, where the laws are listed in a structured manner. Each law is accompanied by a symbolic equation showing its equivalence transformation.](/v2/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fcontent.bartleby.com%2Fqna-images%2Fquestion%2F128d7a0c-27a0-4083-8427-719d64466bab%2Fd356880f-a6ad-450c-9a41-1819f6e8cb06%2Fkicfrhr_processed.png&w=3840&q=75)
