Simplification When one line of a proof is a conjunction, any later line may be one of the conjuncts. If two things are both true, then any one of them is true by itself.
Example: 1. P Q 2. P Premise 1, Simp Justifications Lines
Conjunction Any two lines of a proof may be put onto a new line as a conjunction. If two things are true separately, then they are true together.
Example: 1. P 2. Q 3. P Q Premise Premise 1,2 Conj Justifications Lines
Addition Any line of a proof may be turned into a disjunction, adding as the other disjunct whatever sentence of SL you want. If something is true, then any disjunction it is a part of will be true.
Example: 1. P 2. P v Q Premise 1, Add Justifications Lines
Constructive Dilemma This one is just a special case of modus ponens (see example)
Example: 1. (P Q) (R S) 2. P v R 3. Q v S Premise Premise 1,2, CD Justifications Lines
