Explanation:

Brief Explanations
  • Question 9: The converse of a conditional statement is formed by reversing the hypothesis and conclusion. For example, if the original is "If p then q", the converse is "If q then p".
  • Question 10: Given "If I have a Siberian Husky, then I have a dog", the statement "If I have a dog, then I have a Siberian Husky" is the converse as we reversed the hypothesis and conclusion.
  • Question 11: Negating both the hypothesis and conclusion of the original conditional gives the inverse.
  • Question 12: First, find the converse of the conditional. Then negating both its hypothesis and conclusion gives the contrapositive.
  • Question 13: "If angles are not congruent, then the measures of the angles are not equal" is the inverse of "If angles are congruent, then the measures of the angles are equal" as we negated both parts.
  • Question 14: "If Jenny does buy a keyboard, then she will not buy a guitar" is the contrapositive of "If Jenny buys a guitar, then she will not buy a keyboard" as we first reversed and then negated both parts.

Answer:

  1. b) Reverse the hypothesis and conclusion
  2. b) Converse
  3. d) inverse
  4. b) contrapositive
