Question

If a triangle has one obtuse angle, then it is an obtuse triangle.

Which of the following statements is the contrapositive of the conditional above?
Choose one answer.
a. If a triangle is not obtuse, then it has one obtuse angle.
b. If a triangle is obtuse, then it has one obtuse angle.
c. If a triangle is not obtuse, then it does not have one obtuse angle.
d. If a triangle does not have one obtuse angle, then it is not an obtuse triangle.

Answer 1

if p then q

contrapositive is if not q then not p

Answer 2

A contrapositive negates both terms and reverses the direction of the inference.

Answer 3

I believe the answer may be C or D. This term is tricky.

Answer 4

@Daish96 here it is

Answer 5

yes its very tricky

Answer 6

It's not tricky just apply the rule i gave

Answer 7

D is your best bet. It's more precise and reversed.

Answer 8

i kno the rule but its confusing

Answer 9

is this algebrae or two because maybe i can look it up and try to help out. I'm going to try cuz its confusing but i'm not going to give up on u.

Answer 10

geometry

Answer 11

not geometry, logic

Answer 12

thanks so much @Daish96 and @Lime

Answer 13

uhm we dnt need ur sarcasim here @estudier

Answer 14

What sarcasm???

Answer 15

i felt like u were being sarcastic

Let's not get into an argument here. Geometry uses logic. Agree to disagree.

Answer 17

Well, I did not mean for you or anyone else to feel that way...

Answer 18

well i apologize for taking it the wrong way.

Answer 19

ok i got it from wat's in my geometry book d sounds like the most conserved answer because it makes more since

Answer 20

ohk thanks so much because i was about to put C

Answer 21

lol become my fan i'll help yu out as much as can on here just holla at me and i'll be there for yu

Answer 28

ohk thnks

Answer 29

If obtuse angle (p), then obtuse triangle (q)

We want - If not q then not p so

If not obtuse triangle then not obtuse angle which is C

Answer 30

That was a 50/50 chance. I apologize I was not able to help you to my full extent.

Answer 31
