To symbolize the statement "A square does not have five sides or an octagon has 8 sides" using the given propositions:

- **p**: A square has five sides.
- **r**: An octagon has 8 sides.

Here's the breakdown:

1. **A square does not have five sides** translates to the negation of **p**, which is **¬p** or **~p**.
2. **An octagon has 8 sides** is simply **r**.

Combining these with the logical "or" operator (**∨**), the full symbolic representation is:

**¬p ∨ r**

Alternatively, using the tilde symbol for negation, it can be written as:

**~p ∨ r**
The symbolic representation of the statement "A square does not have five sides or an octagon has 8 sides" is **¬p ∨ r**.

Given
p: A square has five sides.
q: Vertical angles are not congruent.
r: An octagon has 8 sides.
s: Right angles are equal to
What would be the symbols that represent the following statement?
