Question

Let $$p$$ and $$q$$ be any two logical statements and $$r:p \to \left( { \sim p \vee q} \right).$$    If $$r$$ has a truth value $$F,$$ then the truth values of $$p$$ and $$q$$ are respectively :

A. $$F , F$$
B. $$T , T$$
C. $$T , F$$  
D. $$F , T$$
Answer :   $$T , F$$
Solution :
$$p \to \left( { \sim p \vee q} \right)$$    has truth value $$F.$$
It means $$p \to \left( { \sim p \vee q} \right)$$    is false.
It means $$p$$ is true and $${ \sim p \vee q}$$   is false.
$$ \Rightarrow p$$  is true and both $$\sim p$$  and $$q$$ are false.
$$ \Rightarrow p$$  is true and $$q$$ is false.
