Question

If p is the hypothesis of a conditional statement and q is the conclusion, which is represented by ?

the original conditional statement
the inverse of the original conditional statement
the converse of the original conditional statement
the contrapositive of the original conditional statement

Answer 1

If p is the hypothesis and q the conclusion, the conditional "if p then q" is p → q — the original conditional statement.

(For reference: the converse is q → p, the inverse is ¬p → ¬q, and the contrapositive is ¬q → ¬p.)
