  6. Truth table

  7. This is the negation of p, so it’s the opposite of whatever is in p. This is the conjunction (intersection) of p and q. It is true only when both p and q are true. This is an implication, ‘p implies q’. It is true whenever p is false or when both p and q are true. These are the two original propositions and the different combinations of ‘true’ and ‘false’ possible. This is the disjunction (union). It is true unless both both p and q are false. This is the exclusive disjunction, which means it is one or the other but not both. This is equivalence. It is true when either both propositions are false or both are true.
