A proposition is a statement that is
either true or false. It expresses a fact or
a judgment about something.
Propositions can be simple or compound.
Simple propositions are statements that
consist of a single subject and a single
predicate. They express a single idea or
assertion. For example:
"The sky is blue."
"Cats are mammals."
"Water boils at 100 degrees Celsius."
Compound propositions are statements formed by
combining two or more simple propositions using
logical operators such as "and," "or," and "not." These
operators create complex relationships between
simple propositions. For example:
"The sun is shining, and the birds are singing.“
"Either it will rain, or we will go for a picnic.“
"I will study hard, but I may not pass the exam."
What is a proposition?
What are simple propositions, and how are
they different from compound propositions?
Provide an example of a simple proposition.
Provide an example of a compound
proposition.
How are compound propositions formed?
The Earth orbits the Sun.
Birds can fly.
Elephants are mammals and they have
trunks.
It is raining, and the streets are wet.
Plants need sunlight and water to grow.
I will finish my homework, or I will lose marks.
All squares are rectangles, but not all
rectangles are squares.
The moon is made of cheese.
The train arrives at 8:00 PM, or it will be
delayed.
Roses are red, violets are blue, and sugar is
sweet.
Create a compound proposition related
to a personal goal or aspiration. Break it
down into simple propositions and
logical operators.
