False

True

Negating Statements

 The negation of a statement is its opposite

 The negation of a true statement is a false statement and the negation of a false

statement is a true statement

o Thus statements p, q, r, s, when negated are represented as p, q, r, s

o The symbol  means “not”

o Represent statement P symbolically. p

Document Summary

A statement is a sentence that is either true or false, but not both simultaneously. Sentences that are opinions, commands, or questions are not statements. In symbolic logic we use the lowercase letters p, q, r, s to represent statements. Breaking down complex statements into smaller/simple situations: how they connect determines the final outcome, 2 statements can be; The negation of a statement is its opposite. Negation of a statement is represented by : thus statements p, q, r, s, when negated are represented as p, q, r, s, the symbol (cid:373)ea(cid:374)s (cid:862)(cid:374)ot(cid:863, represent statement p symbolically. Chi(cid:272)ago o"hare is the (cid:449)orld"s (cid:271)usiest airport. Express its negation in words: chi(cid:272)ago o"hare is (cid:374)ot the (cid:449)orld"s (cid:271)usiest airport. In english we frequently encounter statements containing the words all, some, or no (none). A statement containing one of these words is a quantified statement: examples;
