Symbolic Logic › Sentential Logic
Which of the following statements is part of the definition for sentential logic?
If and
are formulas then
is a formula as well.
Every lower case letter is a formula.
Anything and everything can be considered a formula.
If is a formula then so is
.
If is a formula then so is
.
It is important to recall that sentential logic has a very specific definition that outlines and describes different formulas.
There are seven different statement criteria when discussing sentential logic and they are as follows.
I. If is a formula then
is a formula as well.
II. If and
are formulas then
is a formula as well.
III. If and
are formulas then
is a formula as well.
IV. If and
are formulas then
is a formula as well.
V. If and
are formulas then
is a formula as well.
VI. All upper case letters are formulas
VII. Nothing else is a formula.
Looking at the possible answer selections only IV is part of the sentential logic definition thus, "If and
are formulas then
is a formula as well." is in the definition.
Which of the following statements is NOT a definition of sentential logic?
Only ,
,
, and
are formulas.
If is a formula then

Looking at the possible answer selections, I, II, III, and IV are part of the sentential logic definition thus, "Only ,
