Question: The contrapositive of the inverse of $ p\Rightarrow \tilde{\ }q $ is

Options:

A) $ \tilde{\ }q\Rightarrow p $

B) $ p\Rightarrow q $

C) $ \tilde{\ }q\Rightarrow \tilde{\ }p $

D) $ \tilde{\ }p\Rightarrow \tilde{\ }q $

Show Answer

Answer:

Correct Answer: A

Solution:

[a] The inverse of $ p\Rightarrow \tilde{\ }q $ is $ \tilde{\ }p\Rightarrow q. $ The contrapositive of $ \tilde{\ }p\Rightarrow q $ is $ \tilde{\ }q\Rightarrow p. $ [ $ \because $ Contrapositive of $ p\Rightarrow q $ is $ \tilde{\ }q\Rightarrow \tilde{\ }p $ ].
