If the statement $\mathrm{p} \leftrightarrow(\mathrm{q} \rightarrow \mathrm{p})$ is false, then true statement/statement pattern is
  1. $\mathrm{p}$
  2. $\mathrm{p} \rightarrow(\mathrm{p} \vee \sim \mathrm{q})$
  3. $\mathrm{p} \wedge(\sim \mathrm{p} \wedge \mathrm{q})$
  4. $(p \vee \sim q) \rightarrow p$

Solution

$\mathrm{p} \leftrightarrow(\mathrm{q} \rightarrow \mathrm{p})$ is false $\Rightarrow \mathrm{p} \equiv \mathrm{F}$ and $\mathrm{q} \equiv \mathrm{F}$ Consider option (B), $\begin{aligned} \mathrm{p} \rightarrow(\mathrm{p} \vee \sim \mathrm{q}) & \equiv \mathrm{F} \rightarrow(\mathrm{F} \vee \sim \mathrm{F}) \\ & \equiv \mathrm{F} \rightarrow(\mathrm{F} \vee \mathrm{T}) \\ & \equiv \mathrm{F} \rightarrow \mathrm{T} \\ & \equiv \mathrm{T} \end{aligned}$
