I've found trying to remember the distinction between converse and inverse unintuitive.

anonymous · Answer

You literally have to read the definitions until it sticks...thats how i got it (: bye!

hero · Answer

You can construct a truth table, then you'd have to memorize the truth table. It's definitely not intuitive.

Start with this:

Conditional: If p, then q.
Converse: If q, then p.
Inverse: If not p, then not q.
Contrapositive: If not q, then not p.
Biconditional: the conditional and its converse are true.
