2.1 Conditional Statements: P Implies Q

1) A conditional statement has two parts: a hypothesis (p) and a conclusion (q). It is written in "if...then..." form, with p in the if part and q in the then part. 2) The negation of a statement is the opposite of the original statement. 3) Two lines are perpendicular if they intersect to form a right angle.

Notes Date: ________________ Period: ___

 Conditional Statement: Is a logical statement that has two parts: a __________________________ = p and

a __________________________ = q.

When a conditional statement is written in ____________________ form, the If part contains the

____________________________ and the then part contains the ____________________________.

Ex: Notation: 𝒑 →𝒒

p implies q

Ex 1: Rewrite each statment as a conditional statemnt, then underline p, and box q.

a. All birds have feathers. Can also be written as: If it’s a bird, then it has feathers.

b. You are a geometry student if you are reading this now.


Can also be written as: If you are reading this now, then you are a geometry student.

 Negation: Is a way to negate a statement. The negation of a statement is the ___________________ of the original
statement.
Notation: 𝒏𝒐𝒕 𝒑 = ~𝒑
Ex 2: Write the negation of each statement.

a. The ball is red: ______________________________________________________________

b. The cat is not black: __________________________________________________________

Related Conditional Statements: Let the original conditional statement be: 𝒑 → 𝒒


 Converse:

 Inverse:

 Contrapostive:

 Equivalent Statements: When two conditional statements are both true or both false.

 Biconditional Statements: When a conditional statement and its ______________________ are both true.
Biconditionals can be written as just one statement using the phrase “ if and only if ”.

Notation: 𝒑 𝒊𝒇 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒐𝒏𝒍𝒚 𝒊𝒇 𝒒 = 𝒑 ⇔𝒒


Ex 3: Let p = “you are a guitar player” and let q = “you are a musician.”
Write each statement in words using If… then....
Then decide whether it is true or false. A statement is true only if it is always true.

a) the conditional statement p → q __________________________________________________________________

b) the converse q → p __________________________________________________________________

c) the inverse ∼p → ∼q __________________________________________________________________

d) the contrapositive ∼q → ∼p __________________________________________________________________

e) as a biconditional: 𝑝 ⇔ 𝑞 __________________________________________________________________

 Perpendicular Lines: If two lines intersect to form a _____________________ then they are _____________________.

Ex 4: In your conditional statement above, circle the hypothesis and box the conclusion.

a) Write the converse statement. __________________________________

b) What is true about these two conditional statements? ______________________________

c) Can you write the statement as a biconditional? ______


If no, explain why. If yes, then write it as a biconditional.
