Modus ponens is a rule of inference in propositional logic. It states that if you have a conditional statement of the form "If P, then Q" (written as \( P \rightarrow Q \)) and you also have the proposition P true, then you can conclude that Q is true. In symbolic terms, it is expressed as: 1. \( P \rightarrow Q \) (If P, then Q) 2. \( P \) (P is true) 3.
