I. Title: LOGIC1
6) u: f(x) =
√x is a rational function.
( x +1)
Ans. This is a declarative sentence. Since the numerator of a function is not a polynomial
function, the function f is not a rational. It is a false proposition.
7) v: What is the domain of the function?
Ans. This is an interrogative sentence and not a proposition.
8) w: I am lying.
Ans. w is a declarative sentence, it is not a proposition because it can neither be true or false.
9) p1: It is not the case that √ 2is a rational number.
Ans. √ 2cannot be expressed as a quotient of two integers. Thus, p1 is a false proposition.

10) p2: Either logic is fun and interesting, or it is boring.
Ans. This is a declarative sentence which is true since students may find logic either fun or
boring. Hence, p2 is a true proposition.
11) p3: If you are a Grade 11 student, then you are a Filipino.
Ans. There are also Grade 11 students of other nationalities. This is not a proposition.
12) p4: If you are more than 60 years old, then you are entitled to a Senior Citizen’s card, and if you
are entitled to a Senior Citizen’s card, then you are more than more than 60 years old.
Ans. True proposition.
Simple proposition- a proposition which cannot be broken down any further into other component
propositions.
Examples: p: Mindanao is an island in the Philippines.
r:My seatmate will get a perfect score in the logic exam.
t: 3 + 2 = 5
u: f(x) =
√x is a rational function.
( x +1)
Compound proposition- a proposition formed from simpler proposition using logical connectors or
some combination of logical connectors. Some logical connectors involving propositions p and/or q
maybe expressed as follows:
not p p and q p or q If p, then q
Examples: p1: It is not the case that √ 2 is a rational number.
p2: Either logic is fun and interesting, or it is boring.
p3: If you are a Grade 11 student, then you are a Filipino.
p 4: If you are more than 60 years old, then you are entitled to a Senior Citizen’s card,
and if you are entitled to a Senior Citizen’s card, then you are more than more than 60 years
old.
Logical operators are operations of propositions involving two or more propositions which make
use of connectors. Combining propositions using a connector will result in the formation of a new
proposition. To determine whether this resulting proposition

5 Logical Operators/Connectives
1. Conjunction. This is a proposition which is the result of combining two other propositions called
conjuncts with the connector word “and.” In symbol, p and q or p∧ q.
The conjunction of two statements is true only if both conjuncts are true.
p q p∧ q

F T F
F F F
2. Disjunction. This is a proposition which is the result of combining two other propositions called
disjuncts with the connective word “or”. In symbol, p or q ( p ∨ q)
The disjunction of two statements is false only if both disjuncts are false.
p q p∨q
T T T

F T T
F F F
3. Negation. This is a proposition which is the result of reversing the truth value of a given
proposition. The negationof a proposition p is denoted by “ notp” p.
If a proposition is true, its negation is false, and if a proposition is false, its negation is true.
p p
T F
F T
4. Implication. Also called conditional which is the result of combining a hypothesis or antecedent
to a conclusion or consequent in the form “If…then”. In symbol, p →q.
The implication is true in all cases, except when the antecedent is true and the consequent is false.
In other words, a true hypothesis cannot imply a false conclusion.
p q p→q

5. Equivalence. Also called biconditional proposition, is a proposition which is the result of
combining two propositions in the form “ if and only if” p ⟷q.
The equivalence is true if both propositions are true or both are false.
p q p ⟷q
