Answer:
See explanation. (I just sumbitted this exact assignment this morning, and i submitted something very similar to the example below!)
Step-by-step explanation:
The contrapositive of a conditional is the same as the converse of the inverse of the conditional.
The best way to prove/support this statement is to create an example. You should start by creating a conditional; you can then form the conditional's converse, inverse, and contrapositive. Here is an example:
Conditional: If C, then D. (starting statement)
Converse: If D, then C. (conditional reversed)
Inverse: If not C, then not D. (opposite of the conditional)
Contrapositive: If not D, then not C. (reversed opposite of the conditional)
Based on the information from the example you gave, you can conclude:
The converse of the inverse: If not D, then not C. (reversed opposite of the conditional)
Because: The converse is the conditional reversed (If D, then C). The inverse of the converse, in this case, would then make it the opposite (If not D, then not C).
I have not yet received a grade on this assignment, but I know the information is correct; the amount of explanation you need to give really depends on how your teacher grades. Personally, I just submitted an example (similar to the one above) that was color-coded to help show the different parts of each statement.
I hope this helps! :)
