1.   G -> (H -> K)
2.   (H v ~M) -> ~K
3.   H

4.   H v ~M                          3        Addition
5.   ~K                              2,4      Modus Ponens
6.   (G * H) -> K                    1        Exportation
7.   ~(G * H)                        6,5      Modus Tollens
8.   ~G v ~H                         7        De Morgan's Law
9.   ~H v ~G                         8        Commutation
10.  ~~H                             3        Double Negation
