Final answer:

A contrapositive is a statement formed by negating both the hypothesis and conclusion of a conditional statement and switching their order.

Step-by-step explanation:

A **contrapositive** is a statement that is formed by negating both the hypothesis and conclusion of a conditional statement and then switching their order. In other words, it is formed by stating the opposite of the original conditional statement.

The original conditional statement is: If you love the ocean, then you are really awesome.

Its contrapositive is: If you are not really awesome, then you do not love the ocean.
