As the word indicates conjunctions are used to connect two thoughts in a statement or two different statements. The word AND is used to connect the two statements and make them one. The symbol (^) is used to signify a conjunction. Conjunctions are only true when both of its parts are true. If one of the two parts is false, then the conjunction is false. Similar to arithmetic operators, which give us a new answer when applied between two operands, logical operators also give us a similar answer. Termed as logical connectives, these operators make a compound statement of either true or false. One of them is conjunctions. Conjunction in actual terms means "and"; in other words, you can only get a true if all statements are true. If not, then it's false. Let's take an example of "Shawn will only pass if he studies." p is the prospect of Shawn studying and q is him passing his exams.
| p | q | p ^ q |
| T | T | T |
| F | T | F |
| T | F | F |
| F | F | F |
These worksheets explains how to construct truth tables according to the given logical conjunctions. Students will use these conjunctions to determine value across each cell.
