Aim: How do we solve logic problems using conditionals?

By adding if and then.

Review: Put this in conditional form.

Where ever you have oxygen there is life.

Answer: If there is oxygen somewhere then there is life.

Put the statement in inverse form too!!

Converse:
When you are using converse I mean converse in math not actual converse you just switch
the hypothesis and the conclusion.

For exapmle:

If there is life then there is oxygen.
It then becomes If there is oxygen then there is life.

This is using inverse because it is adding not into it :)!!
Try it Out:
Today is Thursday.
Tomorrow is Saturday.

Contrapositive:
 In order to contrapositive a stament you have to negate (which is adding not) and switch.

For example:
If tomorrow is not Saturday then today is not Friday.

Try it out!!

If there is water and land turtles can live.
