What is proof by Converse?

Proof by Converse is a logical fallacy where one asserts that if the converse of a statement is true, then the original statement must also be true. However, this is not always the case as the converse of a statement may not always hold true even if the original statement is true. It is important to avoid this error in logical reasoning.

No, the converse of a statement does not necessarily have to be true. In this case, the original statement "If you are hungry then you are not happy" does not imply that its converse "If you are not happy then you must be hungry" is always true. It is possible to be unhappy for reasons other than hunger.

Statement: If line A is perpendicular to line B and also to line C, then line B is parallel to line C. Converse: If line A is perpendicular to line B and line B is parallel to line C, then line A is also perpendicular to line C. Statement is true and also converse of statement is true. Statement: If a solid bar A attracts a non-magnet B, then A must be a magnet. Converse: If a magnet A attracts a solid bar B, then B must be non-magnet. Statement is true but converse is not true (oppposite poles of magnets attract).


Is this statement true or falseThe conditional is the negation of the converse.?

true
