  1. Simplification

    In propositional logic, simplification is a valid immediate inference, argument form and rule of inference which makes the inference that, if the conjunction A and B is true, then A is true, and B is true. The rule makes it possible to shorten longer proofs by deriving one of the conjuncts of a conjunction on a line by itself. An example in English: The rule can be expressed in formal language as: or as where the rule is that whenever instances of "" appear on lines of a proof, either "" or "" can be placed on a subsequent line by itself.
