The different ideas must represent different ideas.
=> The different ideas must not represent same idea.

yes it is valid because if the different ideas represent different ideas then they can not possibly represent the same idea unless of course they are representing the idea that the ideas are different which is the same idea in which case they are not different ideas at all making the question irrelevant. So, i would answer the question with the assumption that it is an absolute truth that the ideas are not that the different ideas represent the ideas that they both represent different ideas but that they actually do represent two distinctly different ideas with no correlation to each other making it impossible, as i earlier stated for them to represent the same idea.

Nope, not valid.
If are talking about "validity" we must talk about purely abstract relationships.
Let me rephrase your statement in purely logic terms.[1]
For all A and B (A not equal to B) --> R(A,C) and R(B,D)(where R is the function of representation and C is not D)
This DOES NOT imply that
there is not ALSO in addition to C and D is X such that R(A,X) and R(B,X)
Thus your statement is not VALID.
TO make your stament valdi you will have to add another assumption that and Idea A can reprsent One and ONLY one other idea.

It's depend.
Cause different ideas could have same result which means it just same [main] idea.
Example:
One want to create a Dam to stop flood.
The other one want to move to/create a higher ground to evade the flood.
- Same different idea
-> same result "avoid flood casualties"
--> same idea "to avoid flood from casualties"
but it's different, cause the way to do it is not the same.
One, by stop/hold the flood.
The other one, by avoid (move to) or switch (create) the flood.

Are you trying to come up with an aphorism? I think it's too repetitive. It's sort of like "oh no **** Sherlock." Haha. Nice try though.

What are you after here? Neither sentence makes any sense to me.
