Answer:
If a polygon has 3 sides, then the polygon is a triangle.
Step-by-step explanation:
Bold = hypothesis
<em>Italic</em> = conclusion
Statement:
If p, then <em>q</em>.
Converse: If <em>q</em>, then p.
To find the converse, switch the hypothesis and conclusion.
Statement:
If a polygon is a triangle, then <em>it has 3 sides</em>.
Now we switch the hypothesis and the conclusion to write the converse of the statement.
If <em>it has 3 sides</em>, then a polygon is a triangle.
We fix a little the wording:
If <em>a polygon has 3 sides</em>, then it is a triangle.
Answer: If a polygon has 3 sides, then the polygon is a triangle.
