Worked practice questions

Which of the following sentences is a statement in logic?

  1. Sun rises in the East.
  2. Please, give your pen.
  3. What is your name now?
  4. How lovely this place is!
Show answer and solution

Which kind of sentence is NOT a statement in mathematical logic?

  1. A true assertion
  2. A false assertion
  3. A question asked
  4. A false equation
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. A question asked

A question cannot be called true or false, so it carries no truth value.

A logical statement must be true or false, but never

  1. true alone
  2. false alone
  3. neither of them
  4. both at once
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. both at once

A statement cannot be true and false simultaneously; it has exactly one truth value.
