Solution
Let p : Two triangles are not congruent
q : Areas of two triangles are not equal.
∴ Symbolic form of the given statementt is P → q.
Converse : q → p
i.e. If areas of two triangles are not equal then U are not cong:ruent.
Inverse : ~p → ~q
i.e. If two triangles are congruent then their a reas are equal.
Contrapositive : ~q → ~ p
i.e. If areas of two triangles are equal then they congruent.
