Which of the following illustrates the truth value of the given statements?


A triangle has four sides, and a rectangle has three sides.


T F → F

F T → F

T T → T

F F → F

Answer 1

• F F → F

• F F → F

Explanation:

1)

We are given first statement as:

Sugar is sour, and lemons are sweet.

This is a false statement since both the statements are opposite.

Sugar is sweet while lemons are sour.

Hence, the truth value of the given statements is:

F F → F

2)

The statement is given as:

A triangle has four sides, and a rectangle has three sides.

It is again a false statement since a triangle is a polygon with three sides and a rectangle is a polygon with four sides.

Hence, both the statements given in it are false.

Hence, the answer is:

F F → F

Answer 2

Sugar is actually sweet and lemons are sour, both those statements are false so the answer is: F F → F

A triangle has 3 sides, a rectangle has 4, both those statements are also false, so the answer would be: F F → F
