Find the component statements for the following given statements and check whether it is true or false:

(a) A square is a quadrilateral and its four sides are equal

Dear Student

The component statements are:

P: A square is a quadrilateral

Q: A square has all its sides equal.

In this statement, the connecting word is “and”

We know that a square is a quadrilateral

So, the statement P is true.

Also, it is known that all the four sides of a square are equal.

Hence, the statement “Q” is also true.

Therefore, both the component statements are true.

Thanks
