Proof by Cases/Formulation 3

Theorem

$\vdash \left({\left({p \lor q}\right) \land \left({p \implies r}\right) \land \left({q \implies r}\right)}\right) \implies r$

Proof

By the tableau method of natural deduction:

$\left({\left({p \lor q}\right) \land \left({p \implies r}\right) \land \left({q \implies r}\right)}\right) \implies r$
