Determine if a proposition is a tautology, contradiction, or contingency using logical equivalences.

Verify the logical equivalence (pq)(pq)=p\sim (\sim p \land q) \land (p \lor q) = p using the laws of logic.

Prove that 1+2+3++n=n(n+1)21 + 2 + 3 + \ldots + n = \frac{n(n+1)}{2} using mathematical induction.

Show that 1+2++n=n(n+1)21 + 2 + \ldots + n = \frac{n(n + 1)}{2}.
