BOOLEAN ALGEBRA SOLUTION FOR ASSIGNMENT

Govt. Mizo HSS

6. State the principal of duality in boolean algebra and give the dual of the boolean expression.

(X+Y).( 𝑋 + 𝑍).(Y+Z)
According to the principle of duality, a true boolean statement or expression can be converted to its
dual form by replacing the “0”s in the statement or expression with “1”s, and vice versa and by
replacing the “+”s in the statement or expression with “.”s, and vice versa.

The dual form of (X+Y)( 𝑋 + 𝑍).(Y + Z) is (X.Y)+( 𝑋. 𝑍)+(Y.Z)


In the above dual expression all the “+”s were replaced by “.”s, and vice versa.
7. Prove the idempotence law of boolean algebra with the help of a truth table.
X X Output X.X X+X
0 0 0 0
1 1 1 1

8. Use the duality theorem to derive another boolean relation from A+𝐴B = A+B
The duality theorem states that the AND operator is replaced with the OR operator. And OR operator
is replaced with AND operator. Binary number 0 is replaced with binary number 1. And Binary number 1 is
replaced with binary number 0.
Applying duality principle:
A+𝐴B = A+B
A.(A̅+B) = AB (Apply Duality & Distributive law)
AA̅+AB = AB (Apply Complimentary law)
0+AB = AB (Properties of 0 or Identity law)
AB = AB
∴ LHS = RHS
9. What would be the complement of the following?
(a) A̅(BC̅+B̅C)
Complement the expression

= A̅ (BC̅ + B̅ C) Apply Demorgan’s first law


=A̅ ((BC̅ ) (B̅ C)) Apply Demorgan’s second law (adding + inside and outside( ) )

= A̅̅ +((B̅+C̅̅ ) (B̅̅ +C̅)) Apply Involution law


= A+((B̅+C) (B+C̅)) Apply Distribution law
= A+( (B+C̅)B̅+(B+C̅)C ) Apply Distribution law
= A+ (BB̅+B̅C̅+CB+CC̅) Apply Complementary law
= A+(0+B̅C̅+CB+0) Apply Identity law
= A+B̅C̅+CB
(b) xy + y̅z + z̅z
Complement the expression
= (𝑥𝑦 + 𝑦𝑧 + 𝑧𝑧) First law of Demorgan
= (𝑥𝑦) (𝑦𝑧) (𝑧𝑧) Second Law of Demorgan
̅
= (x̅ + y̅) (𝑦+ z̅)( 𝑧 + z̅) Apply Involution law
= (x̅ + y̅)(y + z̅)(z + z̅) Apply Complimentary law
= (x̅+y̅)(y+z̅)1 Apply Identity law
= (x̅+y̅)(y+z̅) Apply Distribution law
= x̅y+x̅ z̅+y̅y+y̅ z̅ Apply Indempotent law
= x̅y+x̅ z̅+0+y̅ z̅ Apply Identity law
= x̅y+x̅ z̅+y̅ z̅ Apply Consensus Law
= x̅y+y̅ z̅

10. Find the complement of the following Boolean function: F1 = AB̅ + C̅D̅
The Complement the expression:
= 𝐴B̅ + C̅ D̅ Apply Demorgan’s first law
= (AB̅ ). (C̅ D̅) Apply DeMorgan’s Second Law
= (A̅ + B̅ ). (C̅ + D̅ ) Apply Involution law
= (A̅+ B) (C+D) Apply Distribution law
̅
= (C+D)A+(C+D)B Apply Distribution law
= A̅C+A̅D+BC+BD

11. Find the complement of Boolean expression (A+B̅+C) (A+B̅C)


The Complement the expression:
= (A + B̅ + C) (A + B̅ C) Apply Demorgan’s second law
= (A + B̅ + C) + (A + B̅ C) Apply Demorgan’s first law
= (A̅.B̅ .C̅) + ( A̅.(B̅ +C̅)) Apply Involution law
= (A̅BC̅)+(A̅(B+C̅) Apply Distribution law
̅ ̅
= ABC+AB+AC ̅ ̅ ̅ Apply Absorption law (A+AB=A)
= A̅B+A̅C̅

12. Find the complement of Boolean expression A̅D+C̅D+A̅B


The complement of the expression:
= 𝐴𝐷 + 𝐶𝐷 + 𝐴𝐵 Apply Demorgan’s first law
= (𝐴𝐷).(𝐶𝐷).(𝐴𝐵) Apply Demorgan’s second law
= (𝐴+D̅).(C̅ +D̅).(A̅ +B̅) Apply Involution law
= (A+D̅)(C+D̅)(A+B̅) Apply Distribution law
= (AC+AD̅+D̅C+D̅D̅)(A+B̅) Apply Distribution law
= (AC+D̅) (A+B̅) Apply Distribution law
= AAC+ACB̅+AD̅+D̅B̅ Apply Indempotence law (italic) & Absorption law (in bold)
= AC+AD̅+D̅B̅
