Logic Equivalence Quiz

This document contains an assessment with multiple choice questions testing logical equivalences and the different types of conditionals (converse, contrapositive, inverse). It begins with 9 multiple choice questions verifying logical equivalences using laws like De Morgan's law, double negation, absorption, etc. It then provides a conditional statement and asks 5 multiple choice questions about identifying its converse, contrapositive and inverse. It concludes with two additional verification activities - one for a logical equivalence and another requiring the student to provide the converse, contrapositive and inverse of a conditional statement.
