Question

identify the contrapositive of the statement: if a triangle has 3 equal sides, then it is equilateral. o f. if a triangle has 2 equal sides, then it is isosceles. o g. if a triangle is not equilateral, then it does not have 3 equal sides. o h. if a triangle does not have 3 equal sides, then it is not equilateral. o j. if a triangle is equilateral, then it has 3 equal sides.

Explanation:

The contrapositive of a conditional statement "If p, then q" is "If not q, then not p". Here, p is "a triangle has 3 equal sides" and q is "it is equilateral". So the contrapositive is "If a triangle is not equilateral, then it does not have 3 equal sides".

Answer:

G. If a triangle is not equilateral, then it does not have 3 equal sides.
