What is converse inverse and contrapositive?
if the statement is : if p then q converse: if q then p inverse: if not p then not q contrapositive: if not q then not
State the converse the contrapositive and the inverse what conditional statement If the television is on you will not do homework?
none
Is The inverse is the negation of the converse?
No, the inverse is not the negation of the converse. Actually, that is contrapositive you are referring to. The inverse is the negation of the conditional statement. For instance:P → Q~P → ~Q where ~ is the negation symbol of the sentence symbols.
What is the difference between inverse Converse and reverse?
First, it helps to look at the verb usage: you can reverse something, but you cannot inverse or converse something.The distinctions between reverse, converse, and inverse can often be made by looking at their roots and simple forms.Reverse - look at revert. It means to return to a former condition, position, etc. The root is from the Latin reversus, which means to turn back. Reverse is often used to describe a directional change."I reversed my position on the matter.""The water is now flowing in reverse."Converse - look at convert. It means to change from one form to another. The root is from the Latin converses, which means to turn around. Converse is often used to describe the 'exact' opposite."Black is the converse color of white.""Jill is a democrat; conversely, Jack is a republican."Inverse - look at invert. It means to turn upside down or inside out. The Latin root, inversus, means the same. Inverse is often used to compare how two things are related in an opposite matter."The inverse of 1,2,3,4 is 4,3,2,1." *note that reverse is a process of inversion"The relationship between the amounts of water in a container is inverse to the amount of space; the amount of space decreases as the amount of water increases." *note that the reverse of this is not trueWhen used in logical or mathematical statements:If the statement is: if p then q* converse: if q then p* inverse: if not p then not q* contrapositive: if not q then not pIf a statement is true, the contrapositive is also logically true. Likewise, when the converse is true, the inverse is also logically true.
