Question
Prove that the following arguments are standard by constructing metaphorical proof
$(E\rightarrow F)\rightarrow H$
$\sim J\ v (F\ \&\ G)$
$F \rightarrow(H\rightarrow I)$
$\sim\ \sim J$
$G\ \&\ [(E\rightarrow F) \rightarrow I]$

Answer

$(1)\ (E \rightarrow F) \rightarrow H$ $P$
$(2)\ \sim J\ v(F\ \&\ G)$ $P$
$(3)\ F \rightarrow (H \rightarrow I$ $P$
$(4)\ \sim\ \sim J$ $P/G[(E \rightarrow F) \rightarrow I]$
$(5)\ F\ \&\ G$ $2, 4, DS$
$(6)\ F$ $5,$ Simp.
$(7)\ H \rightarrow I$ $3, 6, MP$
$(8)\ (E \rightarrow F) \rightarrow I$ $1, 7, HS$
$(9)\ G$ $5,$ Simp.
$(10)\ G\ \&\ [(E \rightarrow  F) \rightarrow I]$ $9, 8,$ Conj.
