Theorem mto 188
Description: The rule of modus tollens. The rule says, "if 𝜓 is not true, and 𝜑 implies 𝜓, then 𝜑 must also be not true." Modus tollens is short for "modus tollendo tollens," a Latin phrase that means "the mode that by denying denies" - remark in [Sanford] p. 39. It is also called denying the consequent. Modus tollens is closely related to modus ponens ax-mp 5. Note that this rule is also valid in intuitionistic logic. Inference associated with con3i 150. (Contributed by NM, 19-Aug-1993.) (Proof shortened by Wolf Lammen, 11-Sep-2013.)
