Answer #1

To prove:

~ p ∨ ~p ∧ q ≡ ~p∧~q

LHS:

~ p ∨ ~p ∧ q   

= 1 ∧ ~p ∧ ~p ∧ q [ Identity law ]

= (~q v q) ∧ ~p ∧ ~p ∧ q [ Complement law ]

= (~p ∧ q) v (~p ∧~q) v (~p ∧~q) [ Distributive Law ]

= ~p ∧ (q ∧~q ∧~q) [ Taking ~p common ]

= ~p ∧ (1 ∧~q) [ Complement law ]

= ~p ∧~q [ Identity law ]

= RHS
