The binary operation □ is defined as follows

P Q P□Q
T T T
T F T
F T F
F F T

(A) $\neg Q □ ¬P$

(B) $P□\neg Q$

(C) $\neg P□Q$

(D) $\neg P□ \negQ$

Solution by Happy Mittal

If we compare column of $P\neg Q$ in table with $P ∨ Q$, we need both F in $3^{rd}$ row of table, and for that we need $\negQ$ instead of $Q$. So $P ∨ Q$ is equivalent to $P□\negQ$, and therefore, option (B) is correct.
