Theorem

$\neg \paren {p \iff q} \dashv \vdash \paren {p \lor q} \land \paren {\neg p \lor \neg q}$


Proof 1

By the tableau method of natural deduction:

$\neg \paren {p \iff q} \vdash \paren {p \lor q} \land \paren {\neg p \lor \neg q} $
Line Pool Formula Rule Depends upon Notes

Proof by Truth Table

We apply the Method of Truth Tables.

As can be seen by inspection, the truth values under the main connectives match for all boolean interpretations.


$\begin{array}{|cccc||ccccccccc|} \hline \neg & (p & \iff & q) & (p & \lor & q) & \land & (\neg & p & \lor & \neg & q) \\ \hline \F & \F & \T & \F & \F & \F & \F & \F & \T & \F & \T & \T & \F \\ \T & \F & \F & \T & \F & \T & \T & \T & \T & \F & \T & \F & \T \\ \T & \T & \F & \F & \T & \T & \F & \T & \F & \T & \T & \T & \F \\ \F & \T & \T & \T & \T & \T & \T & \F & \F & \T & \F & \F & \T \\ \hline \end{array}$
