If it is NOT a rectangle, then it is NOT a square.
by switching the truth values of the hypothesis and conclusion, it is called the contrapositive of the original statement. The contrapositive of a true conditional statement will also be true, while the contrapositive of a false conditional statement will also be false.

If a conditional statement is true, then so is its contrapositive. (And if its contrapositive is not true, then the statement is not true).
by switching the truth values of the hypothesis and conclusion, it is called the contrapositive of the original statement. The contrapositive of a true conditional statement will also be true, while the contrapositive of a false conditional statement will also be false.
The statement "All red objects have color" can be expressed as " If an object is red, it has a color. The contrapositive is "If an object does not have color, then it is not red."
Contrapositive
A Contrapositive statement is logically equivalent.
The contrapositive would be: If it is not an isosceles triangle then it is not an equilateral triangle.
false
The contrapositive of the statement "If it is raining then I will take my umbrella" is "If I am not taking my umbrella then it is not raining." This form reverses and negates both the antecedent and consequent of the original statement.
A conditional statement is true if, and only if, its contrapositive is true.
The inverse of a conditional statement switches the hypothesis and conclusion. The converse of a conditional statement switches the hypothesis and conclusion. The contrapositive of a conditional statement switches and negates the hypothesis and conclusion.
