Question
Prove that the following arguments are standard by constructing metaphorical proof
$(P\ v\ Q)\ \rightarrow\ (T\ v\ S)$
$\sim\ N\ \& \sim\ M$
$N\ v\ \sim\ (T\ v\ S)$
$H\ \rightarrow\ (P\ v\ Q)$
$\therefore \sim\ H\ \&\ \sim\ M$

Answer

$(1)\ ( P\ v\ Q)\  \rightarrow\  (T\ v\ S)$ $P$
$(2)\ \sim\ N\ \&\ \sim\ M$ $P$
$(3)\ N\ v\ \sim\ (T\ v\ S)$ $P$
$(4)\ H\  \rightarrow\  (P\ v\ Q)$ $P/ \therefore\ \sim\ H\ \&\ \rightarrow\ M$
$(5)\ \sim\ N$ $2,$ Simp.
$(6)\ \sim\ (T\ v\ S)$ $3, 5, DS$
$(7)\ \sim\ (P\ v\ Q)$ $1, 6, MT$
$(8)\ \sim\ H$ $4, 7, MT$
$(9)\ \sim\ M$ $2,$ Simp.
$(10)\ \sim\ H\ \&\ \sim\ M$ $8, 9,$ Conj.
