Question 12 Marks
Write converse and inverse of the following statement: "If $x>y$ then $x^2>y^{2 }$"
Answer
Given statement :
If $x>y$ then $x^2>y^2$
Converse: If $x^2>y^2$ then $x>y$.
Inverse : If $x$ is not greater than $y$, then $x^2$ is
not greater than $y^2$.
i.e. If $x \ngtr y$ then $x^2 \ngtr y^2$
OR If $x \leq y$ then $x^2 \leq y^2$

$\sim[p \rightarrow(p \wedge \sim q)] \equiv$
  • A
    $p$
  • B
    $q$
  • $(p \wedge q)$
  • D
    $(p \vee q)$
Answer
Correct option: C.
$(p \wedge q)$
$\sim[p \rightarrow(p \wedge \sim q)]$
$=\sim[\sim p \vee(p \wedge \sim q)] ($implication equivalence$)$
$=p \wedge \sim(p \wedge \sim q) ($De Morgan's law$)$
$=p \wedge(\sim p \vee q) ($De Morgan's law$)$
$=(p \wedge \sim p) \vee(p \wedge q) ($Distributive law$)$
$=F \vee(p \wedge q) ($Complement law$)$
$=p \wedge q ($Identity law$)$

MCQ 32 Marks
If $p \wedge q= F , p \rightarrow q= F$, then the truth value of $p$ and $q$ is :
  • A
    T , T
  • B
    T, F
  • C
    F, T
  • D
    F, F
Answer

If p ∧ q is F, p → q is F then the truth values of p and q are T, F.
Explanation:
Consider the following truth table:

pq$p \wedge q$$p \rightarrow q$
TTTT
TFFF
FTFT
FFFT
If (p ∧ q) is F and (p → q) is F, the their truth value must be T and F respectively.

Question 52 Marks
Write truth values of the following statements :
(a) $\sqrt{5}$ is an irrational number but $3+\sqrt{5}$ is a complex number.
(b) $\exists n \in N$ such that $n+5>10$.
Answer

(a) True
(b) ∃ n ∈ N, such that n + 5 > 10  is a true statement, hence its truth value is T.
(All n $\geq$ 6, where n ∈ N, satisfy n + 5 > 10).

If $A=\{2,3,4,5,6\}$, then which of the following is 'not' true ?
  • A
    $\exists x \in$ A such that $x+3=8$
  • B
    $\exists x \in$ A such that $x+2<5$
  • C
    $\exists x \in$ A such that $x+2<9$
  • D
    $\forall x \in$ A such that $x+6 \geq 9$)
Answer

Since, x = 2 ∈ A does not satisfy x + 6 ≥ 9.
∴ option (D) is not true

(a) All students of this college live in the hostel.
(b) 6 is an even number or 36 is a perfect square.
Answer

1) p: All students of this college live in the hostel.
Negation:
~ p: Some students of this college do not live in the hostel.
2) p: 6 is an even number.
q: 36 is a perfect square.
Symbolic form:pvq ..
~(pvq) = ~p^~q

Question 122 Marks
Write the following statement in symbolic form and find its truth value : $\forall n \in N , n^2+n$ is an even number and $n^2-n$ is an odd number.
Answer
Let $p ≡ \forall n \in N, n^2 + n$ is an even number
Let $q ≡ \forall n \in N, n^2 - n$ is an odd number
The symbolic form of given statement is $(p ∧ q)$
Truth value of given statement is
$p ≡ \forall n \in N, n^2 + n$ is an even number $(T)$
$q ≡ \forall n \in N, n^2 - n$ is an odd number $(F)$
$(\because$ from $n = 1, n^2 - n = 0,$ which is not an odd number$)$
$\therefore (p ∧ q) ≡ T ∧ F ≡ F$
$\therefore$ the given statement is false

Question 212 Marks
If $p, q, r$ are the statements with truth values T, F, T, respectively then find the truth value of
$(r \wedge q) \leftrightarrow \sim p$
Answer

(r ∧ q) ↔ ∼ p
≡ (T ∧ F) ↔ ∼T
≡(T ∧ F) ↔ F [1]
≡ F ↔ F
≡ T
Hence, the truth value is ‘T’
