Boolean Algebra
x+y=y+x
x.y = y.x
• 0+1 = 1+0 = 1
• 1.0 = 0.1 = 0
Associative law
A+(B+C) = (A+B)+C
0+(1+0) = (0+1)+0 => 0+1=>1 =>1+0=>1
A.(B.C) = (A.B).C
Distributive law
A.(B+C) = (A.B)+(A.C)
1.(0+1) = (1.0)+(1.1)
1=0+1=1
A+(B.C) = (A+B).(A+C)
De Morgan law
(A.B)’ = A’ + B’
(A+B)’ = A’.B’
Double negation law
• a variable with two negation its symbol gets cancelled out and original
variable is obtained
((A)’)’=A
A=1
A’=0
(A’)’=(0)’=1
Complement law
• if a complement is added to a variable it gives one, if a variable is
multiplied with its complement it results in ‘0’
A + A’ = 1
A.A’ = 0
Absorption law
• This law involved absorbing the similar variables
A.(A+B) = A
A + AB = A
