The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem, we need to express the implication "If triangle ABC is isosceles, then the base angles A and B are equal" in the form of `~p ∨ q` and then find its negation. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Statements:** - Let \( p \) be the statement: "Triangle ABC is isosceles." - Let \( q \) be the statement: "The base angles A and B are equal." 2. **Write the Implication:** - The implication can be represented as \( p \implies q \). 3. **Convert to Disjunction:** - The implication \( p \implies q \) can be rewritten in the form of disjunction as: \[ p \implies q \equiv \neg p \lor q \] - Therefore, we can express it as: \[ \neg p \lor q \] - Substituting the statements: \[ \neg (\text{"Triangle ABC is isosceles"}) \lor (\text{"Base angles A and B are equal"}) \] - This translates to: \[ \text{"Triangle ABC is not isosceles"} \lor \text{"Base angles A and B are equal"} \] 4. **Write the Negation:** - The negation of the disjunction \( \neg p \lor q \) is given by: \[ \neg(\neg p \lor q) \equiv p \land \neg q \] - Substituting the statements: \[ p \land \neg q \] - This translates to: \[ \text{"Triangle ABC is isosceles"} \land \text{"Base angles A and B are not equal"} \] ### Final Answers: - The implication in the form \( \neg p \lor q \) is: \[ \text{"Triangle ABC is not isosceles"} \lor \text{"Base angles A and B are equal"} \] - The negation of the implication is: \[ \text{"Triangle ABC is isosceles"} \land \text{"Base angles A and B are not equal"} \]
