Theorem
- $\vdash \paren {p \land \paren {q \land r} } \iff \paren {\paren {p \land q} \land r}$
Proof
By the tableau method of natural deduction:
Line | Pool | Formula | Rule | Depends upon | Notes | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | 1 | $p \land \paren {q \land r}$ | Assumption | (None) | ||
2 | 1 | $\paren {p \land q} \land r$ | Sequent Introduction | 1 | Rule of Association: Formulation 1 | |
3 | $\paren {p \land \paren {q \land r} } \implies \paren {\paren {p \land q} \land r}$ | Rule of Implication: $\implies \II$ | 1 – 2 | Assumption 1 has been discharged | ||
4 | 4 | $\paren {p \land q} \land r$ | Assumption | (None) | ||
5 | 4 | $p \land \paren {q \land r}$ | Sequent Introduction | 4 | Rule of Association: Formulation 1 | |
6 | $\paren {\paren {p \land q} \land r} \implies \paren {p \land \paren {q \land r} }$ | Rule of Implication: $\implies \II$ | 4 – 5 | Assumption 4 has been discharged | ||
7 | $\paren {p \land \paren {q \land r} } \iff \paren {\paren {p \land q} \land r}$ | Biconditional Introduction: $\iff \II$ | 3, 6 |
