Question
question 1-1 if the conditional statement if a triangle contains an angle that is 90°, then it is a right triangle. if a triangle is a right triangle, then it contains an angle that is 90°. is represented by p→q. which is the symbolic representation of the following statement? if a triangle is a right triangle, then it contains an angle that is 90°. q→p -q→p q→-p -q→-p
Step1: Identify the original conditional
The original conditional statement is \(p
ightarrow q\) where \(p\) is "a triangle is a right - triangle" and \(q\) is "it contains an angle that is 90°".
Step2: Recall the form of the contrapositive
The contrapositive of a conditional statement \(p
ightarrow q\) is \(
eg q
ightarrow
eg p\).
Step3: Determine the correct symbolic representation
The contrapositive of the given statement "If a triangle is a right - triangle, then it contains an angle that is 90°" (represented as \(p
ightarrow q\)) is "If a triangle does not contain an angle that is 90°, then it is not a right - triangle", which is symbolically represented as \(
eg q
ightarrow
eg p\).
