OPERATORS /
CONNECTORS
Objectives
•To construct a truth table for propositions.
•To perform different types of operators on
propositions.
•To determine the possible truth value of propositions.

NEGATION
•The negation of a proposition 𝑝 is denoted by
~𝑝 : (read as ‘not’ 𝑝),
and is denoted through its truth table:
𝒑 ~𝒑
T F
F T
NEGATION
𝑥−1
1) 𝑝 𝑥 = is a polynomial function.
𝑥+2
𝑥−1
It is not true that 𝑝 𝑥 = is a polynomial function.
𝑥+2

2) The tinikling is the most difficult dance.


The tinikling is not the most difficult dance.

3) Everyone in Visayas speaks Cebuano.


Not everyone in Visayas speaks Cebuano.
CONJUNCTION
•The conjunction of a proposition 𝑝 and 𝑞 is denoted by
𝑝 ∧ 𝑞 : (𝑝 and 𝑞),
and is denoted through its truth table:
𝒑 𝒒 𝒑∧𝒒
T T T
T F F
F T F
F F F
CONJUNCTION
𝑝: Angels exist. c) Angels do not exist and
𝑞: 𝜋 > 3 𝜋 is not greater than 3.
(~𝑝) ∧ (~𝑞)
a) 𝑝 ∧ 𝑞
Angels exist and 𝜋 > 3. d) While angels do not
b) 𝑝 ∧ (~𝑞) exist, 𝜋 > 3.
Angels exist, yet 𝜋 is not (~𝑝) ∧ 𝑞
greater than 3.
DISJUNCTION
•The disjunction of a proposition 𝑝 and 𝑞 is denoted by
𝑝 ∨ 𝑞 : (𝑝 or 𝑞),
and is denoted through its truth table:
𝒑 𝒒 𝒑∨𝒒
T T T
T F T
F T T
F F F
DISJUNCTION
𝑝: Victor has a date with Liza b) Either Victor has a date
𝑞: Jan is sleeping. with Liza and Jan is
𝑟: Eumir is eating. sleeping, or Eumir is eating.
𝑝∧𝑞 ∨𝑟
a) Either Victor has a date c) Either Victor has a date
with Liza or Jan is sleeping, with Liza, or Jan is sleeping,
or Eumir is eating. and Eumir is eating.
𝑝∨𝑞 ∨𝑟 𝑝∨ 𝑞∧𝑟
CONDITIONAL
•The conditional of propositions 𝑝 and 𝑞 is denoted by
𝑝 → 𝑞 : (If 𝑝, then 𝑞),
and is denoted through its truth table:
𝒑 𝒒 𝒑→𝒒
T T T
T F F
F T T
F F T
CONDITIONAL
Determine the truth values of the following propositions.
a) If 2 > 0, then there are more than 100 million Filipinos.
The hypothesis and conclusion are both true. TRUE
b) If 2 > 0, then there are only 5 languages spoken in the
Philippines.
The hypothesis is true, but the conclusion is false. FALSE
c) If 2 < 0, then it is more fun in the Philippines.
Since the hypothesis is false, the conditional is TRUE
whether the conclusion is true or false.
BICONDITIONAL
•The biconditional of propositions 𝑝 and 𝑞 is denoted by
𝑝 ↔ 𝑞 : (𝑝 if and only if 𝑞),
and is denoted through its truth table:
𝒑 𝒒 𝒑↔𝒒
T T T
T F F
F T F
F F T
BICONDITIONAL
Suppose that Gee is a Grade 11 student. Consider the ff
biconditionals.
a) Gee is in Grade 11 if and only is she is a shs student.
TRUE
b) Gee is in Grade 11 if and only is she is working as a lawyer.
FALSE
c) Gee has a degree in Computer Science if and only if she
believes in true love.
The truth value depends on whether
Gee believes in true love or not.
PRACTICE
EXERCISE
Express the following propositions in symbols, where p, q, r, and s are
defined as follows.

𝑝: Neil is a big eater. r: Jeric likes to travel.


𝑞: Len has a big voice. 𝑠: Lemy likes violet.
a) While Len has a big voice, Neil is not a big eater.
b) Jeric likes to travel or he does not.
c) It is not true that Neil is a big eater and Lemy does not like violet.
d) Either Neil is a big eater or Len has a big voice, yet Lemy likes violet.
e) Neil is a big eater or Len has a big voice, if and only if Lemy likes violet
and Jeric likes to travel.
