OpenStudy (anonymous):

Converse, Inverse, & Contrapositive: Three new conditionals are formed by making some changes in the original conditional statement. These new conditionals are called the inverse, converse, and contrapositive. The Inverse: The inverse is formed by negating the hypothesis and negating the conclusion. Ex. p → q: If you have a Sprite, then you have a root beer. ~ p → ~ q: If you do not have a Sprite, then you do not have a root beer. The Converse: The converse is formed by interchanging the hypothesis and the conclusion. Ex. p → q: If it rained, then the ground got wet. q → p: If the ground got wet, then it rained. The Contrapositive: The contrapositive is formed by negating both the hypothesis and the conclusion, and then interchanging the resulting negations. Ex. p → q: If 15 is an odd number, then 15 is a prime number. ~ q → ~ p: If 15 is not a prime number, then 15 is not an odd number.
