From the conditional statement that you wrote, determine if the inverse, converse, and contrapositive are logically equivalent.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

If we shoot Dr. Madness in the heart, then he will be defeated. Converse: If he is defeated, then we shot him in the heart. Inverse: If Dr. Madness is not shot in the heart, then he will not be defeated. Contropositive: If Dr. Madness has not been defeated, then we have not shot him in the heart.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

contraP, by default, is always logically equivalent

OpenStudy (anonymous):

So would that be the only one that is logically equivalent? I dont understand what it means.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

it the only one that is a sure bet, there might be others tho ....

How do you know?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

read the first one, are there other ways for that statement to be true?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

: If he is defeated, then we shot him in the heart. can he be defeated in another way? if so then the conclusion is not a logical consequence of the premise

OpenStudy (amistre64):

If Dr. Madness is not shot in the heart, then he will not be defeated. is shot in the heart the only way to defeat him?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Oh i get it, thank you :)

OpenStudy (amistre64):

good luck :)
