Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The contrapositive of a conditional statement is formed by negating both the hypothesis and conclusion, and switching their order. The contrapositive is logically equivalent to the original statement. The converse of a conditional statement switches the hypothesis and conclusion without negating them, and is not necessarily true. The inverse of a conditional statement negates both the hypothesis and conclusion without switching their order, and is also not necessarily true. The conjunction of a conditional statement would involve combining two separate statements with "and," and is not related to its logic.
