Question
Prove that the following arguments are standard by constructing metaphorical proof
$(A\ v\ B)\ \rightarrow\ [D\ \rightarrow\ (P\ \&\ \sim\ Q)]$
$(A\ \&\ J)\ \rightarrow [(P\ \&\ \sim\ Q)\ \rightarrow\ K]$
$(A\ \&\ J)\ \&\ (\sim\ K\ v\ D)$
$\therefore\ (D \rightarrow\ K)\ v\ \sim\ Q$

Answer

$(1)\ (A\ V\ B)\ \rightarrow[D\ \rightarrow\ (P\ \&\ \sim\ Q)]$ $P$
$(2)\ (A\ \&\ J)\ \rightarrow[(P\ \&\ \sim \ Q)\
\rightarrow\ K]$
$P$
$(3)\ (A\ \&\ d)\ \&\ (\ \sim\ K\ v\ D)$ $P/\therefore (D\ \rightarrow\ K)\ v\ \sim\ Q$
$(4)\ A\ \&\ J$ $3,$ Simp.
$(5)\ A$ $4,$ Simp.
$(6)\ A\ v\ B$ $5,$ Add.
$(7)\ D\ \rightarrow\ (P\ \&\ \sim\ Q)$ $1, 6, MP$
$(8)\ (P\ \&\ \sim\ Q)\ \rightarrow\ K$ $2, 4, MP$
$(9)\ D\ \rightarrow\ K$ $7, 8, HS$
$(10)\ (D\ \rightarrow\ K)\ v\ \sim\ Q$ $9,$ Add.
