If truth value of logical statement \((p \leftrightarrow \sim q) \rightarrow(\sim p \wedge q)\) is false, then the truth values of \(\mathrm{p}\) and \(\mathrm{q}\) are respectively

  1. A \(\mathrm{F}, \mathrm{T}\)
  2. B \(\mathrm{T}, \mathrm{T}\)
  3. C \(\mathrm{T}, \mathrm{F}\)
  4. D \(\mathrm{F}, \mathrm{F}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(\mathrm{T}, \mathrm{F}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

As \((p \leftrightarrow \sim q) \rightarrow(\sim p \wedge q)\) is false, we get \(p \leftrightarrow \sim q \equiv T\) and \(\sim p \wedge q \equiv F\)
\(\sim p \wedge q=F\)
\(\Rightarrow \sim \mathrm{p} \equiv \mathrm{F}\) and \(\mathrm{q} \equiv \mathrm{F}\)
\(\Rightarrow \mathrm{p} \equiv \mathrm{T}\) and \(\mathrm{q} \equiv \mathrm{F}\)
