Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(\sim \mathrm{p} \rightarrow \mathrm{q}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The contrapositive of \(\mathrm{p} \rightarrow \sim \mathrm{q}\) is
\[
\sim(\sim \mathrm{q}) \rightarrow \sim \mathrm{p} \text { or } \mathrm{q} \rightarrow \sim \mathrm{p}
\]
Also, converse of \(\mathrm{q} \rightarrow \sim \mathrm{p}\) is \(\sim \mathrm{p} \rightarrow \mathrm{q}\)
