Question

What is the difference between the converse of a conditional statement and the contraceptive of a conditional statement

Answer 1

the converse of a conditional is when you switch around the hypothesis and conclusion:
Example:
conditional: If it has rained, then it will be wet outside
converse: If it is wet outside, then it has rained

The contrapositive is when you negate the hypothesis and conclusion, and also switch them.
Example:
conditional: If it has rained, then it will be wet outside
contrapositive: If it is not wet outside, then it has not rained
