Key Points
Identity Law:
A term OR‘ed with a “0” or AND‘ed with a “1” will always equal that term
- A + 0 = A A variable OR’ed with 0 is always equal to the variable
- A . 1 = A A variable AND’ed with 1 is always equal to the variable
Idempotent Law:
An input that is AND‘ed or OR´ed with itself is equal to that input
- A + A = A A variable OR’ed with itself is always equal to the variable
- A . A = A A variable AND’ed with itself is always equal to the variable
Absorptive Law :
This law enables a reduction in a complicated expression to a simpler one by absorbing like terms.
- A + (A.B) = (A.1) + (A.B) = A(1 + B) = A (OR Absorption Law)
- A(A + B) = (A + 0).(A + B) = A + (0.B) = A (AND Absorption Law)
Domination Law:
- A+1=1 (OR Domination Law)
- A⋅0=0 (AND Domination Law)
