Q50 / 90 · JEE Main 2022 (25 Jul Shift 1) · Mathematics

Which of the following statements is a tautology?

  • A
    ~p∨q⇒p
  • B
    p⇒~p∨q
  • C
    ~p∨q⇒q
  • Correct answer
    D
    q⇒~p∨q

Solution

Plotting the truth table of the following option we have,

p q ~p ~q ~p∨q
T T F F T
T F F T F
F T T F T
F F T T T

We know that, A⇒B is only false when A is true and B is false, now using this rule and above table we will make truth table of options,

~p∨q⇒p p⇒~p∨q ~p∨q⇒q q⇒~p∨q
T T T T
T F T T
F T T T
F T F T

 

Hence q⇒~p∨q is tautology.

Hence, the correct answer is option: 'D'.
