The contrapositive of the inverse of (p→∼q)(p \rightarrow \sim q) is
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
q→∼pq \rightarrow \sim p
Option C (q→∼pq \rightarrow \sim p) is correct because the contrapositive of the inverse of a conditional statement (p→∼q)(p \rightarrow \sim q) is obtained by negating and reversing the inverse, resulting in q→∼pq \rightarrow \sim p.

Consider the following two statements.

Statement pp :

The value of sin⁡120∘\sin 120^{\circ} can be divided by taking θ=240∘\theta=240^{\circ} in the equation 2sin⁡θ2=1+sin⁡θ−1−sin⁡θ2 \sin \frac{\theta}{2}=\sqrt{1+\sin \theta}-\sqrt{1-\sin \theta}.

Statement q:q:

The angles A,B,CA, B, C and DD of any quadrilateral ABCDA B C D satisfy the equation cos⁡(12(A+C))+cos⁡(12(B+D))=0\cos \left(\frac{1}{2}(A+C)\right)+\cos \left(\frac{1}{2}(B+D)\right)=0
Then the truth values of pp and qq are respectively.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
F,T\mathrm{F}, \mathrm{T}
Option A (F, T) is correct because statement p is false when θ=240∘\theta = 240^\circ, and statement q is true because the sum of angles in a quadrilateral is 2π2\pi.
