If $q$ is false and $p\, \wedge \,q\, \leftrightarrow \,r$ is true, then which one of the following statements is a tautology?
A
$(p\, \vee \,r\,)\, \to \,(p\, \wedge \,r)$
B
$(p\, \wedge \,r\,)\, \to \,(p\, \vee \,r)$
C
$p\, \wedge \,r$
D
$p\, \vee \,r$
(JEE MAIN-2019)
Solution
As $\left( {p \wedge q} \right) \leftrightarrow r$ is true
$\therefore $ If ${p \wedge q}$ is true and $r$ is true. or ${p \wedge q}$ is $F$ and $r$ is $F$ .
As $q$ is false
${p \wedge q}$ can not be true
This case is not possible
$\therefore $ Their will be two cases for $p,q,r$.
$T,F,F,$ or $F,F,F$ respectively
