1 Logical Truth To show a statement A is a logic truth (tautology) ...
with a table: The output row for A has all Ts. with a proof: Prove A. with a tree: The tree for -A closes.

2 Contradiction To show a statement A is a contradiction ...
with a table: The output row for A has all Fs. with a proof: Prove -A. with a tree: The tree for A closes.

3 Contingent To show a statement A is contingent ...
with a table: The output row for A has a F and a T. with a proof: No proof test is possible. with a tree: The tree for -A is open and the tree for A is open.

4 Entailment To show A entails B ...
with a table: There is no A=T, B=F row. with a proof: Given A, prove B. with a tree: The tree for A, -B closes.

5 Equivalence To show A is equivalent to B ...
with a table: The output rows match. with a proof: Given A, prove B, and given B, prove A. with a tree: The tree for A, -B closes and the tree for B, -A closes.

6 Consistency To show A and B are consistent ...
with a table: There is a single row where A and B are both T. with a proof: No proof test is possible. with a tree: The tree for A, B is open.
