Final answer:

Explains how to change a statement into the converse and discusses the truth value of the converse of a conditional statement.


Explanation:

The converse of a conditional statement is obtained by swapping the positions of the hypothesis (if clause) and the conclusion (then clause). For example, the converse of 'If the vehicle is a school bus, then the vehicle must be yellow' would be 'If the vehicle is yellow, then the vehicle is a school bus.'

The converse of a conditional statement can be true or false. In this case, the converse 'If the vehicle is yellow, then the vehicle is a school bus' is likely false because not all yellow vehicles are school buses. A counterexample could be a yellow taxi.
