CHAPTER 5
LOGIC
LOGIC
Is the study of the methods and principles of reasoning.
May simply refer to valid reasoning in everyday life, it is also one of the
oldest and most foundational branches of mathematics.
Is a systematic way of thinking that involves reasoning and drawing
conclusions based on evidence or facts.
LOGIC STATEMENTS AND
QUALIFIERS
One of the first mathematician to make a serious study of symbolic logic
was Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz (1646- 1716). He tried to advance the study
of logic from a merely philosophical subject to a formal mathematical subject.
Leibniz never completely achieved this goal; however, several Mathematicians,
such as Augustus De Morgan (1806- 1871) and George Boole (1815-1864),
contributed to the advancement of symbolic logic as a mathematical discipline.
Boole published The Mathematical Analysis of Logic in 1848. In 1854 he
published the more extensive work, An Investigation of the Laws of Thought.
Concerning this document, the mathematician Bertrand Russell stated, “Pure
mathematics was discovered by Boole in a work which is called The Laws of
Thought.”

SIMPLE STATEMENT
is a statement that conveys a single idea.
COMPOUND STATEMENT
is a statement conveys two or more ideas.
Connecting simple statements with words and
phrases such as and, or,
if….then and if and only creates a compound
statement. For instance, “I will attend the meeting
or I will go to school.” is a compound statement. It is
composed of two or more simple statements, “I will
attend the meeting.” and “I will go to school.” the
word or is connective for the two simple
statements.
George Boole used symbol such as p, q, r and s to
represent simple statements and the symbols
, , ,
,
p or q or p q disjunction
If p and not q, then r or s. p and q are grouped together because they are
both to the left of the comma.
r and s are grouped together because they are both to
the right of the comma.

ASSIGNMENT:
Directions: In a ½ sheet of paper answer the following question below, translating
compound statement.
Questions:
a. Write (p q) r as an English sentence.
b. Write “ If Kesha is not a rapper, then Kesha does not have messy hair and Kesha’s
singing style is not similar to Uffie’s,” in symbolic form.
Truth Value
TRUTH VALUE
of a simple statement is either true or false
Truth value of a compound statement depends on the truth
values of its simple statements and its connectives.
Here are some examples of logical statements ,
along with truth values (true/ false)
