The image presents a logical expression and a partially constructed truth table. Let's first break down the columns and symbols:

- \( p \), \( q \), and \( r \) are the three propositions (boolean variables).
- \( p \to q \) is a conditional statement ("if \( p \) then \( q \)").
- \( r \land q \) represents the logical conjunction ("\( r \) AND \( q \)").
- \( (p \to r) \land (r \land q) \) combines the conditional \( p \to r \) with \( r \land q \) using AND.
- \( [(p \to r) \land (r \land q)] \to p \) is the final column, representing the implication of the full expression.

Now, I'll create a complete truth table for this setup, where \( p \), \( q \), and \( r \) take all possible truth values (True = T, False = F).

I'll display the full table below with all logical operations.Here is the complete truth table for the logical expression \([(p \to r) \land (r \land q)] \to p\):

\[
\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|c|c|}
\hline
p & q & r & p \to q & r \land q & (p \to r) \land (r \land q) & [(p \to r) \land (r \land q)] \to p \\
\hline
\text{True} & \text{True} & \text{True} & \text{True} & \text{True} & \text{True} & \text{True} \\
\text{True} & \text{True} & \text{False} & \text{True} & \text{False} & \text{False} & \text{True} \\
\text{True} & \text{False} & \text{True} & \text{False} & \text{False} & \text{False} & \text{True} \\
\text{True} & \text{False} & \text{False} & \text{False} & \text{False} & \text{False} & \text{True} \\
\text{False} & \text{True} & \text{True} & \text{True} & \text{True} & \text{True} & \text{False} \\
\text{False} & \text{True} & \text{False} & \text{True} & \text{False} & \text{False} & \text{True} \\
\text{False} & \text{False} & \text{True} & \text{True} & \text{False} & \text{False} & \text{True} \\
\text{False} & \text{False} & \text{False} & \text{True} & \text{False} & \text{False} & \text{True} \\
\hline
\end{array}
\]

Would you like more details on any specific step of the truth table construction?

Here are some related questions:
1. What is the difference between conjunction (\( \land \)) and implication (\( \to \))?
2. How is the truth value of \( p \to q \) determined for different inputs?
3. Why does the final expression only evaluate to False in one row?
4. How do De Morgan's laws apply to logical expressions like this?
5. What would change if we added a negation to the entire formula?

**Tip**: In a truth table, \( p \to q \) is only false when \( p \) is true and \( q \) is false.
