A simple example of a conditional statement is: If a function is differentiable, then it is continuous. An example of a converse is: Original Statement: If a number is even, then it is divisible by 2. Converse Statement: If a number is divisible by 2, then it is even. Keep in mind though, that the converse of a statement is not always true! For example: Original Statement: A triangle is a polygon. Converse Statement: A polygon is a triangle. (Clearly this last statement is not true, for example a square is a polygon, but it is certainly not a triangle!)
