If statement forms P and Q are logically equivalent, then P ↔ Q is a tautology. Conversely, if P ↔ Q is a tautology, then P and Q are logically equivalent. Use ↔ to convert each of the logical equivalences into a tautology. Then use a truth table to verify each tautology. a) p → (q ∨ r ) ≡ (p ∧ ∼ q) → r
