Statement:        P ->  Q
Converse:         Q ->  P
Inverse:         ~P -> ~Q 
Contrapositive:  ~Q -> ~P


To form the converse, reverse the position of the statements. To form the inverse, negate both statements. To form the contrapositive, negate both statements AND reverse the position.

Note: A conditional statement and its contrapositive ALWAYS have the same truth value.
