Question
Using truth tables, or in any other way, prove that each of the following compound propositions is not a tautology. These implications are common logical fallacies (errors in reasoning) since the conclusion does not follow logically from the set of hypotheses. a. [(P⇒ Q) ^ Q] ⇒ P. b. [(PQ) ^ (~ P)] ⇒ (~ Q). For each one of the logical fallacies in part (iii) of this question give an example of a "real life" situation where such an error can occur.
