Write one of the two conditional statements contained in the biconditional statement: 1+1 = 3 if and only if Mars is a black hole.
If 1+1 = 3, then Mars is a black hole or If Mars is a black hole, then 1+1 = 3
Given the hypothesis and conclusion, write the phrase that corresponds. Hypothesis: The Huskers win Conclusion: I wear red Contrapositive: _________________________________________
If I don't wear red, then the Huskers did not win
Write a biconditional statement from the two conditional statements and determine if the biconditional statement is true. If a two numbers are positive, then their product is positive. If the product of two numbers is positive, then the two numbers are positive.
Two numbers are positive if and only if their product is positive False - Look at the statement If the product of two numbers is positive then, the two numbers are positive (-2 x -2 = 4)
Given the following statements, decide what conclusion can be made, and which law was used. If 50 Cent is an actor, then I’m Brad Pitt. If I’m Brad Pitt, then I wouldn’t have a red beard. Conclusion: _____________________, then I wouldn’t have a red beard. Law: _______________________
If 50 cent is an actor (If 50 cent is an actor, then I wouldn't have a red beard) Law of Syllogism
Write the conditional statement as a biconditional: If a number is a prime number, then it is divisible by only 1 and itself.
A number is prime if and only if it is divisible by 1 and itself.
Write the two conditional statements contained in the biconditional statement. Is the biconditional statement true? An angle is obtuse if and only if it measures more than 90 degrees.
If an angle is obtuse, then it measures more than 90 degrees If an angle measures more than 90 degrees, then it is obtuse. False - Obtuse angles are between 90 and 180 degrees, If it is 180 degrees then it is a straight angle!

Given a potential biconditional, check the truth-value of the conditional statement and its converse. Provide a counterexample if the truth-value is false. A rectangle has an area of 24 square meters if and only if it has sides of 6m and 4m
False! If a rectangle has an area of 24 square meters, then it has sides of 6 meters and 4 meters. The rectangle could have side lengths of 8 meters and 3 meters.
