• A conditional statement is a statement that
can be written “If _____, then _____.”
1. If I live in Palo Alto, then I live in California.
• I live in Palo Alto is called the hypothesis
• I live in California is called the conclusion
Symbolically
• p (hypothesis): I live in Palo Alto
• q (conclusion): I live in California
• If p, then q
• p --> q
• p implies q
• p only if q
• q if p
Converses
• The converse of a conditional is formed by
switching the hypothesis and conclusion
2. Statement: If I have no hair, then I am bald.
Converse: If I am bald, then I have no hair.
3. Write the converse: If x2 = 36, then x < 8. Is
the converse true?
A conditional statement is false if an example
exists such that the hypothesis is true but the
conclusion is false.
Biconditionals
• A biconditional is a statement that combines
a conditional and its converse.
• p if and only if q
• p iff q
4. Write as a biconditional: If an angle is a
straight angle, then the angle is 180. If an
angle is 180, then the angle is a straight
angle.
5. Write the biconditional as two if-then
statements: Segments are congruent iff their
lengths are equal.
Give the converse of each statement.
Determine if the statement/converse is
true. If false, give a counterexample.
1.If points are coplanar, then they lie in the
same plane.
2.If m<x = 110, then <x is obtuse.
3.If 2 angles are right angles, then they are
congruent.
4.If a number is divisible by 2, then it is divisible
by 4.
5.Write as two conditional statements: DE=FG
iff DE ≅ 
