true or false? if you took a true ''if-then'' statement, inserted a not in each clause and reversed the clauses, the new statement would also be true

Answer:

Yes this is true.

Explanation:

If you took a true ''if-then'' statement, inserted a not in each clause and reversed the clauses, the new statement would also be true - yes this is true.

If the conditional (if, then) is true, then the contra- positive (reversed; if not, then not) will be also true.

Example:

Statement 1: If you study hard, then you get good grades.

Statement 2: If you do not study hard, then you do not get good grades.

We can see that these sentences are same.

So, the answer is true.
