Study Notes

Definitions of Logical Terms

  • Must be True: Indicates a statement that is always correct and cannot be false.
  • Not Necessarily True: Refers to a statement that may be correct but can also be false.
  • Cannot be True: Signifies a statement that is definitively incorrect and must be false.

Logical Relationships

  • Must be True vs. Not Necessarily True: They are opposites; if one statement is true, the other cannot be.
  • Cannot be True vs. Could be False: They are opposites; a statement cannot be true if something is deemed to be potentially false.
  • Could be True: Implies a possibility of being correct while remaining inconclusive, meaning it is not definitively false.
  • Cannot be True vs. Must be False: A statement that cannot be true must be false by definition.

Oppositional Pairs

  • Could be True vs. Cannot be True: These terms are logical opposites; one cannot exist if the other is true.
  • Not Necessarily True vs. Must be False: They are oppositional; if something is not necessarily true, it does not have to be false.

These core logical terms and their relationships establish foundational concepts essential for understanding logical reasoning and truth assessments.
