Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

The correct Answer is:
To convert the given statements into symbolic form, we will define some variables to represent the propositions involved. Let's denote: - Let \( p \): "Milk is white" - Let \( q \): "The sky is blue" - Let \( r \): "Qutub Minar is in Delhi" - Let \( s \): "Taj Mahal is in Agra" - Let \( t \): "It is cloudy" - Let \( u \): "It is raining" Now, we can express each statement in symbolic form: ### (a) Milk is white if and only if the sky is not blue. 1. The statement "the sky is not blue" can be represented as \( \neg q \). 2. The phrase "if and only if" indicates a biconditional relationship, which can be represented as \( p \iff \neg q \). **Symbolic Form**: \[ p \iff \neg q \] ### (b) If Qutub Minar is in Delhi then Taj Mahal is in Agra. 1. The statement "Qutub Minar is in Delhi" can be represented as \( r \). 2. The statement "Taj Mahal is in Agra" can be represented as \( s \). 3. The phrase "if... then..." indicates an implication, which can be represented as \( r \implies s \). **Symbolic Form**: \[ r \implies s \] ### (c) Even though it is not cloudy, it is still raining. 1. The statement "it is not cloudy" can be represented as \( \neg t \). 2. The statement "it is still raining" can be represented as \( u \). 3. The phrase "even though" indicates a conjunction, which can be represented as \( \neg t \land u \). **Symbolic Form**: \[ \neg t \land u \] ### Summary of Symbolic Forms: - (a) \( p \iff \neg q \) - (b) \( r \implies s \) - (c) \( \neg t \land u \)
