Question 10 (Inverse of the statement)
Step 1: Recall the definition of inverse
The inverse of a conditional statement "If \(p\), then \(q\)" is "If \(
eg p\), then \(
eg q\)". Here, \(p\): "two angles are a linear pair", \(q\): "the angles add to 180 degrees". So \(
eg p\) is "two angles are not a linear pair" and \(
eg q\) is "the angles do not add to 180 degrees".
Step 2: Determine truth value
Two angles that are supplementary (add to \(180^\circ\)) but not a linear pair (e.g., two angles in a parallelogram that are adjacent but not a linear pair? Wait, no—e.g., two angles formed by two intersecting lines but not adjacent? Wait, actually, two angles can add to \(180^\circ\) without being a linear pair (e.g., two angles separated by a transversal, like same - side interior angles in parallel lines). So the inverse is false because there exist angles that are not a linear pair but still add to \(180^\circ\).
Question 11 (Contrapositive of the statement)
Step 1: Recall the definition of contrapositive
The contrapositive of a conditional statement "If \(p\), then \(q\)" is "If \(
eg q\), then \(
eg p\)". Here, \(p\): "two angles are a linear pair", \(q\): "the angles add to 180 degrees". So \(
eg q\) is "two angles do not add to 180 degrees" and \(
eg p\) is "two angles are not a linear pair".
Step 2: Determine truth value
By the definition of a linear pair, a linear pair of angles must be adjacent and supplementary (add to \(180^\circ\)). So if two angles do not add to \(180^\circ\), they cannot be a linear pair (since a linear pair requires them to add to \(180^\circ\)). Thus, the contrapositive is true.
