Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) contradiction

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

\(p\)\(\sim p\)\(p \Rightarrow \sim p\)\(\sim p \Rightarrow p\)\((p \Rightarrow \sim p) \wedge(\sim p \Rightarrow p)\)
\(T\)\(F\)\(F\)\(T\)\(F\)
\(F\)\(T\)\(T\)\(F\)\(F\)
Clearly,\((p \Rightarrow \sim p) \wedge(\sim p \Rightarrow p)\) is a
contradiction.
