I'm taking a first course in discreet mathematics and there are a lot of new rules/laws to remember.

My question is what is the best way to remember the rules of logic? How would you remember the:

Absorption Laws

The Domination Laws

Identity Laws

Are there any well known mnemonics, like SOHCAHTOA in trigonometry?

Arturo's and Raphael's comments say it all:

Forget about mnemonics. From this point forward, you should be aiming for understanding, not memorization. If you understand what these laws are saying, you'll be able to remember them.

To get to that point of understanding:

Use them and you won't be able [to] forget them.
