Write converse, inverse and contrapositive of the following statements. If surface area decreased then pressure increases.

To analyze the given statement, "If surface area decreased then pressure increases," we can derive its converse, inverse, and contrapositive as follows:

Original Statement

If surface area decreased, then pressure increases.

Converse

The converse switches the hypothesis and conclusion:

If pressure increases, then surface area decreased.

Inverse

The inverse negates both the hypothesis and conclusion:

If surface area did not decrease, then pressure does not increase.

Contrapositive

The contrapositive negates and switches the hypothesis and conclusion:

If pressure does not increase, then surface area did not decrease.

Summary

• Converse: If pressure increases, then surface area decreased.
• Inverse: If surface area did not decrease, then pressure does not increase.
• Contrapositive: If pressure does not increase, then surface area did not decrease.
