    The negation of the compound proposition \[p\vee (\tilde{\ }p\vee q)\] is

    A)                 \[(p\ \wedge \tilde{\ }q)\ \wedge \tilde{\ }p\]  

    B)                 \[(p\ \wedge \tilde{\ }q)\ \vee \tilde{\ }p\]

    C)                 \[(p\ \vee \tilde{\ }q)\ \vee \tilde{\ }p\]              

    D)                 None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

                       \[\tilde{\ }[p\vee (\tilde{\ }p\vee q)]\equiv \,\tilde{\ }p\ \wedge \tilde{\ }(\tilde{\ }p\vee q)\]                    \[\equiv \ \tilde{\ }p\wedge (\tilde{\ }(\tilde{\ }p)\ \wedge \tilde{\ }q)\]                 \[\equiv \tilde{\ }p\wedge (p\ \wedge \tilde{\ }q)\].
