If an original conditional statement is in the form of "If P, then Q", then its converse is in the form of

• If not P, then not Q

• If P, then not Q

• If not Q, then not P

• If Q, then P

If an original conditional statement is in the form of "If P, then Q", then its inverse is in the form of

• If not P, then not Q

• If P, then not Q

• If not Q, then not P

• If Q, then P

If an original conditional statement is in the form of "If P, then Q", then its contrapositive is in the form of

• If not P, then not Q

• If P, then not Q

• If not Q, then not P

• If Q, then P

A counterexample to a conditional statement occurs when a specific case shows that

• the hypothesis is true and the conclusion is true

• the hypothesis is false and the conclusion is false

• the hypothesis is true and the conclusion is false

• the hypothesis is false and the conclusion is true

The negation of a statement means to find a counterexample.
