Write the converse, inverse, and contrapositive of the following implication.
If x and y are numbers such that x = y, then x2 = y2
Advertisements
Solution
Converse: If x and y are numbers such that x2 = y2 then x = y.
Inverse: If x and y are numbers such that x ≠ y then x2 ≠ y2.
Contrapositive: If x and v are numbers such that x2 ≠ y2 then x ≠ y.
