Disjunctive syllogism is a valid form of reasoning in propositional logic that states if one of two mutually exclusive propositions is true, then the other must be false. It operates on the principle that if we have a disjunction (an 'or' statement) and one of the components is negated, we can conclude that the other component must be true. This type of argument is fundamental in establishing logical conclusions based on available premises.
