Solve using the Laws we dont need a truth table to solve this.

I am pretty sure we start by using Conditional identity law.

Idempotent laws
p V p = p
d = dy d
(p ^ q) Ar = p ^ (q ^r)
Associative laws
( φν) Vr=pV (q Vr .
Commutative laws
p V q = q V p
p^ q = q ^p
Distributive laws
p V (q Ar) = (p V q) ^ (p V r) p^ (ą v r) = (p ^ q) v (p ^r)
Identity laws
pVF = p
p^T = p
Domination laws
p V T = T
p A F = F
Double negation laws
p קבר
Complement (or
negation) laws
p V ¬p = T
p^ ¬p = F
De Morgan's laws
¬(p V q) = ¬p ^ ¬q
¬(p ^ q) = ¬p V ¬q
Absorption laws
pV (pΛq) p
d = (b ^ d) v d
Conditional identities
p → q = -p V q
