This video tutorial introduces the concept of conditional statements in logic, explaining their structure with hypotheses and conclusions. It covers related conditionals like converse, inverse, and contrapositive, and explains negation. The video includes practice exercises to write and evaluate these statements. It concludes with an introduction to biconditional statements, which combine conditional and converse statements when both are true.

What are the two main components of a conditional statement?

• Premise and Conclusion

• Hypothesis and Conclusion

• Assumption and Result

• Condition and Outcome
