Question

which of the following is a counterexample for this conditional statement? if a shape has four sides, then it is a square. a trapezoid a circle a square a triangle

Explanation:

A counter - example is an example that shows a conditional statement is false. The conditional statement is “If a shape has four sides, then it is a square”. A trapezoid has four sides but is not a square. A circle has no sides, a square is what the statement claims (not a counter - example), and a triangle has three sides.

Answer:

A. a trapezoid
