Question

Write the inverse of the following statement:

‘If the train reaches on time, then I can catch the connecting flight.’

Answer 1

Let p: The train reaches on time.

q: I can catch the connecting flight.

Then the symbolic form of the given statement is p → q.

Inverse: ∼ p → ∼ q is the inverse of p → q,

i.e., If the train does not reach on time, then I cannot catch the connecting flight.
