Explanation:

Brief Explanations

Let the original statement be “If \(p\) (a figure is a polygon with 10 sides), then \(q\) (it is a decagon)”.
The inverse of “If \(p\), then \(q\)” is “If not \(p\), then not \(q\)”.
Here, the new statement is “If a figure is not a polygon with 10 sides, then it is not a decagon” which is in the form “If not \(p\), then not \(q\)”

Answer:

B. inverse
