This category contains pages concerning Rule of Material Equivalence:


The rule of material equivalence is a valid deduction sequent in propositional logic:

If we can conclude that $p$ implies $q$ and if we can also conclude that $q$ implies $p$, then we may infer that $p$ if and only if $q$.


Formulation 1

$p \iff q \dashv \vdash \paren {p \implies q} \land \paren {q \implies p}$

Formulation 2

$\vdash \paren {p \iff q} \iff \paren {\paren {p \implies q} \land \paren {q \implies p} }$
