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.
The contrapositive of the statement "All journalists are pessimists" is "If someone is not a pessimist, then they are not a journalist." This reformulation maintains the same truth value as the original statement, meaning that if the original statement is true, the contrapositive is also true.
Contrapositive
false
The contrapositive of the statement "If a number ends with 0, then it is divisible by 10" is "If a number is not divisible by 10, then it does not end with 0." In logic, the contrapositive is formed by negating both the hypothesis and the conclusion, and it is logically equivalent to the original statement.

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 contrapositive of the statement "All journalists are pessimists" is "If someone is not a pessimist, then they are not a journalist." This reformulation maintains the same truth value as the original statement, meaning that if the original statement is true, the contrapositive is also true.
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.
The contrapositive of the statement "If a number ends with 0, then it is divisible by 10" is "If a number is not divisible by 10, then it does not end with 0." In logic, the contrapositive is formed by negating both the hypothesis and the conclusion, and it is logically equivalent to the original statement.
