Step 2 (First theorem proof). Tabulate all four (A,B) combinations and evaluate both sides independently: for (0,0), and ; for (0,1) and (1,0), both sides evaluate to 0; for (1,1), both sides evaluate to 0. Since both sides match in every row, the identity is proved. Because the left side is the NOR equation and the right side a bubbled-AND equation, this also proves a NOR gate is functionally identical to a bubbled AND gate.
Step 3 (Second theorem statement). The complement of the PRODUCT of two logical inputs equals the SUM of their individual complements: . …
