Proving that $A \vee (\neg A \wedge B) \equiv A \vee B$ I'm reading a book at the moment about logic gates and Boolean simplification. There is a part which I can't seem to follow.

I can easily work out that $A \vee (\neg A \wedge B) \equiv A \vee B$ using a truth table as it's easy to see. 

However, I can't seem to turn $A \vee (\neg A \wedge B)$ into $A \vee B$ using steps such as distributive / absorption etc.

Can someone talk me through the steps that you would take to simplify this?
Note that

$\qquad A \lor (B \land C) \equiv (A \lor B) \land (A \lor C)$;

you can "multiply out". Add in

$\qquad (A \lor \lnot A) \land B \equiv B$

and you are done.
