Modus Ponens Modus Tollens   Disjunctive $p \vee q$ $p \vee q$
$p \rightarrow q$ $p \rightarrow q$   Syllogism $\sim q$ $ \sim p$
$p$ $\sim q$     Therefore $p$ Therefore $q$
Therefore $q$ Therefore $ \sim p$        
Conjunctive $p$ Hypothetical $p \rightarrow q$
Addition $q$ Syllogism $q \rightarrow r$
  Therefore $p \wedge q$   Therefore $p \rightarrow r$
Disjunctive $p$ $q$ Dilemma: $p \vee q$
Addition Therefore $p \vee q$ Therefore $p \vee q$ Proof by $p \rightarrow r$
      Division $q \rightarrow r$
      into Cases Therefore $r$
Conjunctive $p \wedge q$ $p \wedge q$ Rule of $\sim p \rightarrow c$
Simplification Therefore $p$ Therefore $q$ Contradiction Therefore $p$
Closing C.W. $\vert p$ Assumed Closing C.W. $\vert p$ Assumed
without $\vert q$ derived with $\vert x \wedge \sim x$ derived
contradiction Therefore $p \rightarrow q$ contradiction Therefore $ \sim p$
