Verify the logical equivalences using the theorem below: (p ∧ ( ~ ( ~ p ∨ q ) ) ) ∨ (p ∧ q) ≡ p Theorem 2.1.1 Let p, q, and r be statement variables, t a tautology, and c a contradiction. The following logical equivalences are true. 1. Commutativity: p1q=q1p; p V q = 9VP 2. Associativity: ( pq) Ar=p1qAr); (pVq) Vr=pv (Vr) 3. Distributivity: PA(Vr) = (p19) (par); p V (qar) = (pVg) (Vr) 4. Identity: pAt=p:...
