CONSTRUCTING
TRUTH TABLES

Objective:
Construct a truth table.
(M11GM-IIh-1)
UNDERSTANDING CHECK
Write TRUE if the statement is True and FALSE if not.
1. A proposition is a declarative sentence that is either true or false but
not both.
2. “I am lying” is a true proposition.
3. Negation of proposition is denoted by .
4. And, but and also are conjunction connectors.
5. There are 6 logical connectors.
CORRECT ANSWER

1. TRUE
2. FALSE
3. TRUE
4. TRUE
5. FALSE
TRUTH VALUE AND TRUTH TABLES
The truth table of a simple statement is either true (T) or false (F).

The truth value of a compound statement depends on the truth


values of its simple statements and its connectives.
A truth table is a table that shows the truth value of a compound
statement for all possible truth values of its simple statements.
EXAMPLE
Since a proposition has two For propositions and
possible truth values. would have the following truth
table.

T T T
T F

number of rows, where is the F F
number of proposition.
EXAMPLE
Suppose , and are propositions. T T T
Then a truth table involving the given
propositions has rows

APPLICATION OF TRUTH TABLE TO LOGICAL OPERATORS

NEGATION

T F The truth table tells that when is true, its


negation is false. On the other hand, when
F T is false, its negation is true.

SUMMARY
 The truth table of a simple statement is either true (T) or false (F).

 The truth value of a compound statement depends on the truth values


of its simple statements and its connectives.

 A truth table involving propositions has rows.

 In general, the number of rows of a truth table depends on the number


of propositions used.
