Explanation:

Conditional statements like "if it is cold, then I wear a jacket" are composed of a hypothesis that in this case is "if it is cold" and a possible result or conclusion "then I wear a jacket" that are closely connected to each other. This type of statements can be changed into converse statements by interchanging the hypothesis for the conclusion, this statements are valid in some cases but n most cases they are not considering the result or conclusion which in this case is "then I wear a jacket" can be related to multiple, for example, you can wear a jacket just because you like doing this or you feel cold, but not only because the weather is cold. Therefore, it is not tur the converse statement is true just because the original statement was true.
