Directions: Identify if the following sentences are STATEMENT or NOT STATEMENT and determine its truth value (that is you should be able to decide whether the statement is TRUE or FALSE). In your activity notebook. (3 minutes) Am I Statement or Not?
1. Happy Birthday! 2. Some books have hard covers. 3. No Philippine presidents were naturally born in Korea. 4. My dog loves me. 5. Some cats aren't mammals. 6. Juan is intelligent. 7. Go get the milk. 8. All dogs are Labrador Retrievers. 9. Can we be friends? 10. Today is Tuesday. 5

I. What is Logic? -is the science of correct reasoning.
Statement 01 is any declarative sentence that is either true (T) or false (F), but not both
We refer to T or F as the truth value of the statement. Statements are usually denoted by lower case letters (for example: p, q, r,s …)
The sentence “Stand up” or “Follow the leader” cannot be used as statements. These are commands instead of a declarative sentence and therefore cannot be classified as true or false
Examples of statements: (TRUE) (FALSE) Today is Thursday. s: January has 31 days. Examples of NOT statements: 𝑥+𝑦 Happy Birthday! Tweet me. (command) Can we be friends? (question) Juan is intelligent. (opinion)
Let p be the sentence “Manila is the capital in the Philippines.” Let q be the sentence “The world is flat.” These are both statements because we can assign to them a truth value. In this case, p is true and q is false. Example 1
Simple Statement ? Compound Statement ?
A simple statement is a statement that conveys a single idea. Examples: Today is March 16, 2020. (Simple statement) Metro Manila is under community quarantine. (Simple statement)
A compound statement is a statement that conveys two or more ideas. Examples: Today is March 16, 2020 and Metro Manila is under community quarantine. (Compound statement) Today is not March 16, 2020 or yesterday was a Sunday. ( Compound statement)

Negation 02 The negation of a statement p, denoted by ~p (read as “not p”) is the statement whose truth value is the opposite of the truth value of p.
Example p= Manila is not the capital city of the Philippines p= Manila is the capital city of the Philippines Negation
Activity : Negate me! Write the negation of each statement: 1. I want a car and a motorcycle. 2. My cat stays outside or it makes a mess. 3. I've fallen and I can't get up. 4. You study or you don't get a good grade. 5. It is raining and it isn't snowing.
Activity 1: Negate me! ( Answer) Write the negation of each statement: 1. I don’t want a car and a motorcycle. 2. My cat won’t stay outside or it won’t make a mess. 3. I haven’ t fallen and I can get up. 4. You don’t study or you do get a good grade. 5. It is not raining and it is snowing. M.N. ORTIZ GEC 113/126 Mathematics in the Modern World Module 2: Logic
Example: Consider the following simple statements. Today is Friday. It is raining. I am going to a movie. I am not going to the basketball game. Write the following compound statements in symbolic form Today is not Friday and I am going to a movie. I am going to the basketball game and I am not going to a movie. I am going to the movie if and only if it is raining. If today is Friday, then I am not going to a movie.
Consider the following simple statements. Today is Friday. It is raining. I am going to a movie. I am not going to the basketball game. Write the following compound statements in symbolic form. SOLUTION: Today is not Friday and I am going to a movie. Answer: I am going to the basketball game and I am not going to a movie. Answer: I am going to the movie if and only if it is raining. Answer: If today is Friday , then I am not going to a movie. Answer:
Activity 9: Translate me! Direction: Consider the following simple statements. Translate the following symbolic form in compound statements. Today is Friday. It is raining. I am going to a movie. I am not going to love my ex anymore. M.N. ORTIZ GEC 113/126 Mathematics in the Modern World Module 2: Logic
Today is Friday . It is raining . I am going to a movie. I am not going to love my ex . 1. (~ p q ) 2. (s ∧ ~q) 3. (r ~p) 4. ( s ~q ) 5. (~q ∧ p ) 6. (~p ∨ q) 7. (p ~p) 8. (s ~r) 9. (~r ∨ s ) 10. (~q ∨ s )
Application: Construct me! Directions: Construct your own 4 simple or compound statements labeling it with p, q, r and s respectively. Translate the symbolic form given below using the statements you constructed. 1. (s ∧ ~q) 2. ~(~q ∧ r) 3. ~(p ∨ q) 4. (p ∧ ~q) 5. (~s ∧ q)
The truth value of a simple statement is either true (T) or false (F). The truth value of a compound statement depends on the truth values of its simple statements and its connectives.
Conjunction , is true if BOTH and are true. Otherwise, it is false. M.N. ORTIZ GEC 113/126 Mathematics in the Modern World Module 2: Logic
Disjunction , is true if at least one statements ( or both) is true. It is false only if both statements are false. M.N. ORTIZ GEC 113/126 Mathematics in the Modern World Module 2: Logic
Examples: Negating simple statements. , June 26, 2020 is a Friday. June 26, 2020 is not a Friday. The sun is bigger than the moon. The sun is not bigger than the moon. I am not a Libra. I am a Libra. Negation, If is true, is false If is false, is true M.N. ORTIZ GEC 113/126 Mathematics in the Modern World Module 2: Logic
