Jenni wrote a conditional statement and its converse.
Conditional: If angles are right angles, then the angles have the same measure.
Converse: If angles have the same measurement, then they are right angles.
Did Jenni write the converse statement properly? Determine if the converse is true or false and give a counterexample if the converse is false.
No; two angles that each measure 45°
Yes; two angles that each measure 90°
Yes; two angles that each measure 41°
No; two angles that each measure 82°
The converse statement is true.
Counterexample:
If we have two angles that each measure 41°, the converse statement holds true because the angles have the same measurement but are not right angles.
