Question

question
what is the inverse of the following statement.
if ( mangle1 + mangle2 = 180 ), then the angles are supplementary.
answer
if two angles are supplementary, then ( mangle1 + mangle2 = 180 )
if ( mangle1 + mangle2 = 180 ), then the angles are not supplementary.
none of the above.
if two angles are not supplementary, then ( mangle1 + mangle2
eq 180 )
if ( mangle1 + mangle2
eq 180 ), then the angles are not supplementary.

Explanation:

To find the inverse of a conditional statement "If \( p \), then \( q \)", we negate both the hypothesis (\( p \)) and the conclusion (\( q \)). The original statement is: "If \( m\angle1 + m\angle2 = 180 \), then the angles are supplementary." Here, \( p \) is \( m\angle1 + m\angle2 = 180 \) and \( q \) is "the angles are supplementary."

Step 1: Identify \( p \) and \( q \)

  • Hypothesis (\( p \)): \( m\angle1 + m\angle2 = 180 \)
  • Conclusion (\( q \)): The angles are supplementary

Step 2: Negate \( p \) and \( q \)

  • Negation of \( p \) (\(

eg p \)): \( m\angle1 + m\angle2
eq 180 \)

  • Negation of \( q \) (\(

eg q \)): The angles are not supplementary

Step 3: Form the inverse

The inverse of "If \( p \), then \( q \)" is "If \(
eg p \), then \(
eg q \)". So substituting the negations, we get: "If \( m\angle1 + m\angle2
eq 180 \), then the angles are not supplementary." Wait, looking at the options, let's re - evaluate. Wait, maybe I made a mistake in the options. Wait, the options given:

Wait, the original statement: \( p \): \( m\angle1 + m\angle2 = 180 \), \( q \): angles are supplementary.

Inverse is \(
eg p
ightarrow
eg q \), which is "If \( m\angle1 + m\angle2
eq180 \), then the angles are not supplementary". But looking at the options, one of the options is "If two angles are not supplementary, then \( m\angle1 + m\angle2
eq180 \)"? Wait, no, let's check the options again.

Wait, the options:

  1. If two angles are supplementary, then \( m\angle1 + m\angle2 = 180 \) (this is the converse)
  2. If \( m\angle1 + m\angle2 = 180 \), then the angles are not supplementary (this is a contradiction, not inverse)
  3. If two angles are not supplementary, then \( m\angle1 + m\angle2

eq180 \) (this is the contrapositive)

  1. If \( m\angle1 + m\angle2 = 180 \), then the angles are not supplementary (same as option 2)
  2. None of the above.

Wait, my initial calculation of the inverse was wrong. Wait, the inverse of "If \( p \), then \( q \)" is "If not \( p \), then not \( q \)". So \( p \) is \( m\angle1 + m\angle2 = 180 \), so not \( p \) is \( m\angle1 + m\angle2
eq180 \), and not \( q \) is angles are not supplementary. So the inverse should be "If \( m\angle1 + m\angle2
eq180 \), then the angles are not supplementary". But none of the options have this? Wait, maybe there is a typo in the options. Wait, looking at the options again, one of the options is "If two angles are not supplementary, then \( m\angle1 + m\angle2
eq180 \)" - that is the contrapositive. The converse is "If \( q \), then \( p \)". The inverse is "If not \( p \), then not \( q \)". Since none of the options match the correct inverse, the answer is "None of the above".

Answer:

None of the above.
