Explanation:

To understand why the complement law holds, we need to analyze the truth table for the expression A + A'. A truth table lists all possible values of the variables involved and the resulting value of the expression for each combination of variable values. In this case, we are dealing with a single variable A, which can either be 0 or 1.

A A' A + A'
0 1 1
1 0 1
