IF - THEN
STATEMENT
 CONVERSE
 The converse of a conditional
statement is formed by switching the
hypothesis and the conclusion.
 The converse of 𝑝 → 𝑞 is q→ 𝑝 .
 INVERSE
 Negate the hypothesis and the
conclusion.
 The inverse of 𝑝 → 𝑞, is ~𝑝 → ~𝑞.
 CONTRAPOSITIVE
 Negate the hypothesis and the
conclusion of the converse.
 The contrapositive of 𝑝 → 𝑞, is
~𝑞 → ~p .
