Note 1: These equivalences and tautologies are used to generate the above steps.
Note 2: Two logical statements are logically equivalent if they always produce the same truth value. Consequently, p ≡ q is same as saying p ↔ q is a tautology. $$\begin{array}{c|c}\textbf{Equivalence} \\ \hline \text{Absorption Law} & \begin{gathered} p \wedge \left(p \vee q\right) \equiv p \\ p
