What are the two components of a conditional statement?

• Statement and Proof

• Cause and Effect

• Premise and Result

• Hypothesis and Conclusion

In a conditional statement, what does 'if P then Q' signify?

What is the converse of the statement 'If Lucy is a dog, then Lucy is a mammal'?

• If Lucy is a mammal, then Lucy is a dog

• If Lucy is a dog, then Lucy is a mammal

• If Lucy is not a dog, then Lucy is not a mammal

• If Lucy is not a mammal, then Lucy is not a dog

Which of the following is true if the conditional statement 'If Lucy is a dog, then Lucy is a mammal' is true?

• The inverse is true

• The converse is true

• None of these are true

• The contrapositive is also true

What does a biconditional statement imply?

• Neither the conditional nor the converse is true

• Only the converse is true

• Only the conditional is true

• Both the conditional and the converse are true

Which of the following is an example of a biconditional statement?

• All of the above

• If a number is divisible by 2, then it is even

• If a number is even, then it is divisible by 2

• If a number is not even, then it is not divisible by 2

What is the abbreviation for 'if and only if' in a biconditional statement?

• IFF

• IOF

• IFOF

• IFIF

Why is it important to understand the implications of a conditional statement?

• To learn about different types of angles

• To understand the history of geometry
