Introductory Message

For the Facilitator:

Welcome to the Mathematics 8 -Self-Learning Module on Conditional Statements!

This Self-Learning Module was collaboratively designed, developed and

reviewed by educators from the Schools Division Office of Pasig City headed by its
Officer-in-Charge Schools Division Superintendent, Ma. Evalou Concepcion A.
Agustin, in partnership with the City Government of Pasig through its mayor,
Honorable Victor Ma. Regis N. Sotto. The writers utilized the standards set by the K
to 12 Curriculum using the Most Essential Learning Competencies (MELC) in
developing this instructional resource.

This learning material hopes to engage the learners into guided and
independent learning activities at their own pace and time. Further, this also aims
to help learners acquire the needed 21st century skills especially the 5 Cs namely:
Communication, Collaboration, Creativity, Critical Thinking and Character while
taking into consideration their needs and circumstances.

In addition to the material in the main text, you will also see this box in the
body of the self-learning module:

Notes to the Teacher

This contains helpful tips or strategies that
will help you in guiding the learners.

As a facilitator you are expected to orient the learners on how to use this self-
learning module. You also need to keep track of the learners' progress while allowing
them to manage their own learning. Moreover, you are expected to encourage and
assist the learners as they do the tasks included in this self-learning module.
For the Learner:

Welcome to the Mathematics 8 Self-Learning Module on Conditional Statements!

This self-learning module was designed to provide you with fun and
meaningful opportunities for guided and independent learning at your own pace and
time. You will be enabled to process the contents of the learning material while being
an active learner.

This self-learning module has the following parts and corresponding icons:

Expectations - This points to the set of knowledge and skills

that you will learn after completing the module.

Pretest - This measures your prior knowledge about the lesson

at hand.

Recap - This part of the module provides a review of concepts

and skills that you already know about a previous lesson.

Lesson - This section discusses the topic in the module.

Activities - This is a set of activities that you need to perform.

Wrap-Up - This section summarizes the concepts and

application of the lesson.

Valuing - This part integrates a desirable moral value in the

lesson.

 RECAP

Direction: Answer the questions below and write your answers in the space provided
in “IN THE BOX”.
What conclusions can you give why some students are faced with problems in
life such as a) failing grades, b) difficulties in meeting the deadlines, c) troubles with
love life?

LESSON

Let us consider one possible answer to the above question:

If I am inspired, then I study better.

This statement is an example of a conditional statement in the if-then form. A
conditional statement is an if-then statement composed of two clauses: the if-clause
which can be denoted by p and the then-clause denoted by q. The statement is in the
form, “If p, then q”. The p statement is called the hypothesis and the q statement is
called the conclusion.
In the statement “If I am inspired, then I study better”, the clause I am
inspired is the hypothesis (p) while the clause I study better is the conclusion (q).
Example: Write a conditional statement for

p: I do my homework.
q: I get my allowance.
Answer: If I do my homework, then I get my allowance.
The conditional or if-then statement could be symbolized by p → q (read as if p, then
q or p implies q). The conditional is defined to be true unless a true hypothesis leads
to a false conclusion. A truth table for p q is shown below.

p q p→q
T T T
T F F
F T T
F F T

In the truth table above, p q is only false when the hypothesis (p) is true and the
conclusion (q) is false; otherwise it is true.

Example 1: Given p: 5 is an even number.

q: 9 is odd.
Problem: What is the truth value of p q?
Solution: Since p: 5 is an even number is false and q: 9 is odd is true, then the
conditional ‘If 5 is an even number, then 9 is odd’ is true based from the truth table.
In symbol, p is false and q is true, therefore p q is true.

Example 2: Given r: 2x – 4 = 10. true

s: x = 9. false
Problem: What is the truth value of r s?
Solution: Since it is given that r is true and s is false, then the conditional r s is
false.

ACTIVITIES

Activity 1
Direction: For each conditional, underline the hypothesis and circle the conclusion.

4. If Today is Monday, then yesterday was Sunday.
5. Frozen water implies it’s temperature is below 0℃.
Activity 2

conditional statement for each of the following.
