(Examples #1-3), Equivalence Laws for Conditional and Biconditional Statements, Use De Morgans Laws to find the negation (Example #4), Provide the logical equivalence for the statement (Examples #5-8), Show that each conditional statement is a tautology (Examples #9-11), Use a truth table to show logical equivalence (Examples #12-14), What is predicate logic? The converse of enabled in your browser. Be it worksheets, online classes, doubt sessions, or any other form of relation, its the logical thinking and smart learning approach that we, at Cuemath, believe in. Notice that by using contraposition, we could use one of our basic definitions, namely the definition of even integers, to help us prove our claim, which, once again, made our job so much easier. The converse statements are formed by interchanging the hypothesis and conclusion of given conditional statements. The addition of the word not is done so that it changes the truth status of the statement. To get the converse of a conditional statement, interchange the places of hypothesis and conclusion. The contrapositive statement is a combination of the previous two. for (var i=0; ic__DisplayClass228_0.b__1]()", "2.02:_Propositional_Calculus" : "property get [Map
