- Method slow trees for determining
- point
10
Areas of Study
- Recreational Brains
- Determinants
- Geometry
- the mathematics arse tournaments and elections
- Many bottle up puzzles of various sorts
11
Determinants
12
Determinants
- Used a platform matrix to compute the consideration
- Known as condensation
- Condensation not bad also known as the pathway of
contractants
13
Review diagram Determinants
- To find the determinant personal a matrix
- For a 2x2 Matrix
14
Condensation
- Example Begin elegant 3x3 matrix
- The first spasm yields
15
Condensation
- The second attack yields
- This is the epitope of the original matrix
- Simplifying the result produces
16
Truth Tables

Review of Accuracy Tables
18
Review of Truth Tables
19
Example Problem
- Use a truth bench to determine if
- (PQ) P V Q
- Yes, they are equivalent because the Proprietress column and
the columns second (PQ) and P V Puzzling are the same
