This site models ideas behind the idea of "Proofs".

This site provides a brief overview of the logic behind implications or if-then statements using truth tables and simple examples: IF THEN Logical Argument.

This site provides a prove via truth table argument of Properties of Logical Operators. This also provides a truth table for the biconditional or if and only if statement.
