and history, 25 like both math and Filipino, 17 like Filipino and
history, and 10 like all the three subjects. How many like math
only? Filipino only? History only? How many did not like any of the
three subjects?

DISCUSSION

I. What is logic?
 Logic is an interdisciplinary field which studies truth and reasoning.
Informal logic seek to characterize valid arguments informally, for instance
by listing varieties of fallacies. Formal logic represent statement and
arguments patterns symbolically, using formal systems such as first order
logic.
SELF LEARNING
A. Tell whether the following statement is formal or non formal. Write f
if your answer is formal and NF if it is non-formal on the space
provided before each item.

F1. An acute triangle is a triangle that all included angles is


less than 90 degrees.
NF2.The diagonal of a rhombus is perpendicular to each
other.
F3. A number is an even number if and only if n must be
squared.
F4. A number n is an odd number if and only if n=2k+1
where k is any integer.
F5. An odd number raised to a third power is always an odd
number.
B. Make a formal and non-formal definition for the following terms:
1. Table
2. Graph
3. Letters

C. Make exactly three formal statements in mathematics


1.
