Question

Given the conditional: If the game is field hockey, then the game is a team sport. Find the converse and determine its truth value.

Answer 1

"If the game is a team sport, the game is field hockey"

Truth value → True

Explanation:

The conditional statement is,

"If the game is field hockey, then the game is a team sport"

There are two statements,

Statement p → The game is a field hockey.

Statement q → Game is a team sport.

For the converse statement,

If p then q (q → p)

So the converse will be,

"If the game is a team sport, the game is field hockey"

Since, both the statements p and q are TRUE, truth value will be TRUE.

(Converse is false only when q is false and p is true)
