Disjunctive syllogism - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

Explore the concept of normal forms in propositional logic, where each formula has a unique truth-value function. Learn about equivalence of formulas, determining normal forms, and canonic forms like Disjunctive Normal Form (DNF) and Conjunctive Normal Form (CNF). Discover how to find canonic forms

Categorical syllogism, a form of inference with two premises and a conclusion, is a fundamental concept in logic. This type of deductive argument consists of three categorical propositions - universal affirmative, universal negative, particular affirmative, and particular negative. Terms such as maj

Logical inferences involve drawing conclusions from premises, which can either be valid or invalid based on the rules of inference. This includes Modus Ponens, Hypothetical Syllogism, DeMorgan's Law, and Law of Contrapositive. Invalid inferences result in fallacies like denying the antecedent. Exerc

Deductive reasoning entails drawing logical conclusions from given statements or facts. This involves applying the Law of Detachment and Law of Syllogism to deduce new information based on established truths. Through examples and visuals, explore how these principles guide reasoning processes and le

A categorical syllogism is a deductive argument based on the relations of classes (categories) where a conclusion is drawn from two premises involving three terms. In standard form, the premises and conclusion are in categorical form (A, E, I, O), each term occurs twice, and the middle term does not
