The contrapositive of a statement switches and negates both the hypothesis and the conclusion.
The original statement is: If two angles are both 25 degrees, then they are congruent angles.
The contrapositive of the statement would be: If two angles are not congruent angles, then they cannot both be 25 degrees.
Therefore, the correct answer is option 4: If two angles are not congruent angles, then they cannot both be 25 degrees.
For the following questions, use the statement below.
If two angles are both 25 degrees, then they are congruent angles.
Which of the following is a contrapositive of the statement?(2 points)
1 None of the above.
2 If two angles are not 25 degrees, then they are not congruent angles.
3 If two angles are congruent, they are both 25 degrees.
4 If two angles are not congruent angles, then they cannot both be 25 degrees.
