Texts: 1. Prove that (q → p) ∨ (¬q → ¬p) by direct proof using logical equivalence laws. 2. Prove that ¬((p ∨ r) ∨ (¬p ∧ q)) and ¬p ∧ ¬q ∧ ¬r are logically equivalent by direct proof using logical equivalence laws. 3. Prove that ¬(p ↔ q) and p ↔ ¬q are logically equivalent by direct proof using logical equivalence laws. Please solve this ASAP. Questions 1 to 3. Thank you.

Step 1
To prove this statement, we can use the logical equivalence law known as the Law of Excluded Middle, which states that for any proposition p, either p or ¬p must be true. Show more…
