Theorem ifnmfalse

Description: If A is not a member of B, but an "if" condition requires it, then the "false" branch results. This is a simple utility to provide a slight shortening and simplification of proofs versus applying iffalse directly in this case. (Contributed by David A. Wheeler, 15-May-2015)

Ref Expression
Assertion ifnmfalse ⊢ A ∉ B → if A ∈ B C D = D

Proof

1 df-nel ⊢ A ∉ B ↔ ¬ A ∈ B
2 iffalse ⊢ ¬ A ∈ B → if A ∈ B C D = D
3 1 2 sylbi ⊢ A ∉ B → if A ∈ B C D = D
