Truth Table C03D3A
1. **State the problem:** Construct a truth table for the compound proposition $$((\neg p \lor r) \land (p \leftrightarrow q)) \to r$$.
2. **Recall the logical operators:**
- Negation: $$\neg p$$ is true when $$p$$ is false.
- Disjunction: $$p \lor q$$ is true if at least one of $$p$$ or $$q$$ is true.
- Conjunction: $$p \land q$$ is true only if both $$p$$ and $$q$$ are true.
- Biconditional: $$p \leftrightarrow q$$ is true if $$p$$ and $$q$$ have the same truth value.
- Implication: $$p \to q$$ is false only if $$p$$ is true and $$q$$ is false; otherwise true.
3. **List all possible truth values for $$p$$, $$q$$, and $$r$$:** There are 8 combinations.
| $$p$$ | $$q$$ | $$r$$ | $$\neg p$$ | $$\neg p \lor r$$ | $$p \leftrightarrow q$$ | $$((\neg p \lor r) \land (p \leftrightarrow q))$$ | $$((\neg p \lor r) \land (p \leftrightarrow q)) \to r$$ |

4. **Interpretation:** The truth table shows the truth value of the compound proposition for all possible inputs.
Final answer: The truth table is constructed as above.
