S
((A= B) A A) =→ S
(a) In order for ((A= B) ^ A) = S to be a tautology, what must the
truth values of S be? Include all possibilities.
(b) Write down two simple statements A and B. (They should be
statements whose truth value can be easily determined)
(c) Use your simple statements give an example, in ordinary language,
of (A = B) A A.
(d) Using your ordinary language statement of (A = B) A A, what
might you conclude?
(e) What does this suggest S should be?
(f) Verify that your choice of S makes ((A = B)AA) → Sa tautology.
