Study Notes
DeMorgan's Theorems in Boolean Algebra
- DeMorgan's theorems help in simplifying Boolean algebra expressions by breaking down complex statements into simpler ones.
- The equivalent of inverting the OR sum of two variables is the AND product of their inverses, i.e.,
(x + y)' = x' y'. - The equivalent of inverting the AND product of two variables is the OR sum of their inverses, i.e.,
(xy)' = x' + y'. - DeMorgan's theorems can be applied to expressions containing more than two variables by recursively breaking down the expressions into smaller ones.
