No vegetarian owns a gun. 2. All policemen own guns Therefore, no policeman is a vegetarian</p><p>Bonus: Based on your Venn Diagram, write an “If p then q” conditional statement</p><p>Bonus2: Based on your Venn Diagram, write statements using “necessary” & “sufficient”</p><p>Ex Determine the validity using a Venn Diagram 1. All poets are eloquent. 2. Some poets are wine connoisseurs Therefore some wine connoisseurs are eloquent</p><p>Determining Validity with Truth Tables</p><p>Hypothesis 1: If I’m not old enough, I can’t drink Hypothesis 2: I’m old enough Conclusion: Therefore, I can drink</p><p>Notation:</p><p>Use a truth table to determine whether the argument: above is valid.</p><p> p q 1.
