"If two triangle are congruent, then their areas are equal." Is the given statement, then the contrapositive of the inverse of the given statement is (Where p: Two triangles are congruent, q : Their areas are equal)
Options
- AIt two triangles are not congruent. then their areas are equal
- BIf two triangles are not congruent, then their areas are not equal
- CIf areas of two triangles are equal, then they are congruent
- DIf areas of two triangles are not equal, then they arc congruent
Correct answer
C. If areas of two triangles are equal, then they are congruent
Step-by-step solution
Let p : Two triangles are congruent. q: Their areas are equal. Logical form of given statement is p q Inverse of given statement is p q . Contrapositive of inverse of given statement is ( q) ( p) i.e. q p i.e. If areas of two triangles are equal, then they are congruent.
