Introductory Message
For the facilitator:
As a facilitator, you are expected to orient the learners on how to use
this module. You also need to keep track of the learners' progress while
allowing them to manage their own learning at home. Furthermore, you are
expected to encourage and assist the learners as they do the tasks included
in the module.
iii
Let Us Learn
This module was designed and written with you in mind. It will help you understand
better on how to determines the relationship between the hypothesis and the
conclusion of an if-then statement (M8GE-IIf-1) and transforms a statement into an
equivalent if-then statement (M8GE-IIf-2). The scope of this module permits it to be
used in many different learning situations. The lessons are done to follow the
standard sequence of the course.
Let Us Try
Multiple Choice. Read and analyze the following items and choose the letter of the
correct answer from the given choices. Write the letter of the correct answer on a
separate sheet of paper.
1. It is a statement formed by joining two statements p and q using the words if and
then.
A. hypothesis B. conclusion C. conditional D. inverse
5. If the angles have same measures, then they are congruent. What do you call the
underlined portion in this conditional statement?
A. conclusion B. Hypothesis C. argument D. converse

For items 6 – 8
Identify the if-then form of the given statement.

13. Which of the following statement is true?
A. All equiangular triangles are equilateral.
B. An acute angle measures 80 degrees.
C. Any two lines intersect at the middle.
D. Four sided polygons are equilateral.
14. The if-then form of the statement: All students like geometry.
A. If you are a student, then you like geometry.
B. If you are not a student, then you like geometry.
C. If you are not a student, then you don’t like geometry.
D. If you are a student, then you don’t like geometry.
15. Rewrite the statement “I bring my umbrella when it is raining” in the if-then form.
A. I bring my umbrella, then it is raining.
B. If it is raining, then I bring my umbrella.
C. If it is not raining, then I will not bring my umbrella.
D. If I bring my umbrella, then it is raining.
Let Us Study
Do you think it is possible to make a valid conclusion without even going through
the process of investigation? What would you do if you were asked to make a decision
that will affect many people? Many aspects in our life involve decisions.
Geometry deals with logical reasoning to prove a certain statement. In this worksheet
you will find the answer to the questions: “How do you make a valid conclusion?”
and “How can you show that your conclusion is valid?”
Let us try this!
Description: This activity is intended to elicit your prior knowledge regarding the
lesson.
Direction: Answer the questions below and write your answer in the space provided
IN THE BOX.
What conclusions can you give why some students are faced with problem in
life such as failing grades, and even difficulties in obeying their parents?

IN THE BOX
If-then Statement
An if-then statement is composed of two clauses: the if–clause and the then–
clause. We can denote a letter for each clause, p for the if-clause and q for the then-
clause. The statement is in the form, “if p then q”. Conditional statements are
formed by joining two statements p and q using the words if and then. The p
statement is called the hypothesis and the q statement is called the conclusion.
Examples:
7
2. Parallel lines do not intersect.
p q
If-then statement: If the lines are parallel, then they do not intersect.
Ric promises that if he has a P500-bill, he will treat his daughter for dinner.
Four possibilities:
p q p→q
T T T
T F F
F T T
F F T
Conditional statements are not always written with the “if” clause first. The following
conditionals mean the same thing.
8
Note that a conditional is a compound statement. Now that we have defined a
conditional, we can apply it to Example 1.
Example 1:
Given: p: I do my homework.
q: I get my allowance.
Problem: What does p → q represent?
In Example 1, the sentence, "I do my homework" is the hypothesis and the sentence,
"I get my allowance" is the conclusion. Thus, the conditional p→q represents the
hypothetical proposition, "If I do my homework, then I get my allowance." However,
as you can see from the truth table above, doing your homework does not guarantee
that you will get an allowance! In other words, there is not always a cause-and-effect
relationship between the hypothesis and conclusion of a conditional statement.
Example 2:
Solution: The conditional a → b represents "If the sun is made of gas, then 3 is a
prime number."
a b a→b
T T T
T F F
F T T
F F T
In Example 2, "The sun is made of gas" is the hypothesis and "3 is a prime number"
is the conclusion. Note that the logical meaning of this conditional statement is not
the same as its intuitive meaning. In logic, the conditional is defined to be true unless
a true hypothesis leads to a false conclusion. The implication of a → b is that: since
the sun is made of gas, this makes 3 a prime number. However, intuitively, we know
that this is false because the sun and the number three have nothing to do with one
another! Therefore, the logical conditional allows implications to be true even when
the hypothesis and the conclusion have no logical connection.
Conditional Statement
You have already learned that an if-then statement is composed of two clauses: the
if–clause and the then–clause. The statement is in the form, “if p then q”. Conditional
statements are formed by joining two statements p and q using the words if and then.
The p statement is called the hypothesis and the q statement is called the conclusion.
In this lesson, you will be able to transform a statement into an equivalent if -then
statement.

Observe the statement below:
“I’ll buy what you want when you got a high grade.”
• Are you familiar with the statement above?
The hypothesis is the first, or “if,” part of a conditional statement. The conclusion is
the second, or “then,” part of a conditional statement. The conclusion is the result of
a hypothesis. Keep in mind that conditional statements might not always be written
in the “if-then” form.
• Even though the word “then” is not there, the statement can be rewritten as:
If the weather is nice, then I’ll wash the car.
• If the word “if” is in the middle of a conditional statement, the hypothesis is
always after it.
In statement 5 “if” and “then” are not there, but can be rewritten as: If a triangle is
equiangular, then it is equilateral.

Activity 6: Determine the hypothesis and the conclusion of the following statements:
Let Us Remember
An if-then statement is composed of two clauses: the if–clause and the then–
clause. We can denote a letter for each clause, p for the if-clause and q for the then-
clause. The statement is in the form, “if p then q”. Conditional statements are
formed by joining two statements p and q using the words if and then. The p
statement is called the hypothesis and the q statement is called the conclusion.
p → q is true except when p is true and q is false.
12
A truth table for p → q.
P Q p→q
T T T
T F F
F T T
F F T
In the truth table above, p → q is only false when the hypothesis (p) is true and the
conclusion (q) is false; otherwise it is true. Note that a conditional is a compound
statement.
A conditional statement (also called an If-Then Statement) is a statement with a
hypothesis followed by a conclusion. Another way to define a conditional statement
is to say, “If this happens, then that will happen.”
The hypothesis is the first, or “if,” part of a conditional statement. The conclusion is
the second, or “then,” part of a conditional statement. The conclusion is the result of
a hypothesis.
Keep in mind that conditional statements might not always be written in the “if-then”
form. In this case, to identify the hypothesis and the conclusion, first transform the
statement into an equivalent if – then statement.
