In this video: How can you tell if an "or" statement is true or false? In other words, how can you determine its "truth value"? After you watch this video, you will find out, and you will be able to construct a truth table for a disjunction, which is another word for an "or" statement.

This is part of my Logic Chapter Playlist:
This Logic Playlist covers almost all of the logic chapter in the course MGF1106 that I teach. The following is how the videos correlate to the textbook we use at my school: Mathematical Ideas, 14th edition by Miller, Hornsby and Heeren:

Logic Part 1: Logic Statements, Connectives, Quantifiers (Section 1 of textbook)
Logic Part 2: Truth Values of Conjunctions (Section 2 of textbook)
Logic Part 3: Truth Values of Disjunctions (Also Section 2 of textbook)
Logic Part 4: Truth Values of Compound Statements with "and", "or", and "not". (Also Section 2 of textbook)
Logic Part 5: What are truth tables? (Also Section 2 of textbook)
Logic Part 6: More on Truth Tables and Setting Up (Also Section 2 of textbook)
Logic Part 7: Equivalent Logical Statements and DeMorgan's Laws (Also Section 2 of textbook)
Logic Part 8: The Conditional and Tautologies (Section 3 of textbook)
Logic Part 9: Conditional Continued: Negations and Equivalent Statements (Section 3 of textbook)
Logic Part 10: Conditional and Related Statements: Converse, Inverse, Contrapositive (Section 4 of textbook)
Logic Part 11: How to write If...then statements using other wording (Also Section 4 of textbook)
Logic Part 12: Euler Diagrams to determine Validity of Argument (Section 5 of textbook)
Logic Part 13: Truth Tables to Determine if Argument is Valid or Invalid (Section 6 of textbook)

I learned how to remember the symbols for intersection and union, as well as how they generally work. We have not yet covered that specific part in class yet, so I am excited to already have a basis of understanding for this part so that I will have a smoother time learning when working in class. Thank you! :)

In this video i learned how to find the disjunctions in truth values

I learned that for a disjunction to be true, at least one of the component statements must be true.
