The correct Answer is:
To determine whether the statement "If \( p \equiv q \), then \( p \leftrightarrow q \) will be a tautology" is true or false, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Terms**: - \( p \equiv q \) means that \( p \) is equivalent to \( q \). This implies that both \( p \) and \( q \) have the same truth value (either both true or both false). - \( p \leftrightarrow q \) (read as "p if and only if q") is a biconditional statement that is true if both \( p \) and \( q \) are either true or false. 2. **Analyzing the Biconditional**: - The truth table for \( p \leftrightarrow q \) is as follows: - If \( p \) is true and \( q \) is true, then \( p \leftrightarrow q \) is true. - If \( p \) is false and \( q \) is false, then \( p \leftrightarrow q \) is true. - If \( p \) is true and \( q \) is false, then \( p \leftrightarrow q \) is false. - If \( p \) is false and \( q \) is true, then \( p \leftrightarrow q \) is false. 3. **Considering the Given Condition**: - Given that \( p \equiv q \), we know that \( p \) and \( q \) must have the same truth value. - Therefore, in the cases where \( p \) and \( q \) are both true or both false, \( p \leftrightarrow q \) will always be true. 4. **Conclusion**: - Since \( p \leftrightarrow q \) is true for all cases where \( p \equiv q \), we conclude that \( p \leftrightarrow q \) is indeed a tautology under the condition that \( p \equiv q \). 5. **Final Answer**: - Therefore, the statement "If \( p \equiv q \), then \( p \leftrightarrow q \) will be a tautology" is true. We denote this as 'T'.
