Conditional and Bio-Conditional

The document discusses different types of conditional statements: - A conditional statement contains an "if" section (hypothesis) and a "then" section (conclusion). - The converse switches the hypothesis and conclusion. - The inverse negates both the hypothesis and conclusion. - The contrapositive switches and negates the hypothesis and conclusion of the inverse. Conditional statements relate a dependent variable (conclusion) to an independent variable (hypothesis).

Conditional

A statement with a hypothesis and conclusion.


[Also known as IF - THEN Statement]

statement; It is the independent variable statement; It is the dependent
(in other words, it has to happen in variable (in other words, it can’t
order for the conclusion to happen) occur unless the hypothesis occurs”

Bio - Conditional
An if and only if statement. The conclusion can only happen
when the hypothesis occurs.
These can be written by putting the conditional and converse statements together

Inverse, Converse and Contrapositive


To form the converse of the conditional
statement, interchange the hypothesis
and the conclusion.
“The converse of "If it rains,
then they cancel school" is "If they
cancel school, then it rains."
To form the inverse of the conditional
statement, take the negation of both
the hypothesis and the conclusion.
The inverse of “If it rains,
then they cancel school” is “If it does not rain, then they
do not cancel school.”
To form the contrapositive of the conditional statement,
interchange the hypothesis and the conclusion of the inverse
statement.
The contrapositive of "If it rains, then they cancel
school" is "If they do not cancel school, then it does not
rain."
