Answer
To form the negation of a conditional statement, leave the antecedent (the first part) unchanged, change the if-then connective to, and negate the consequent (the second part).
Example:
The negation of given statement is “I am in Los Angeles and not in California.”
To form the negation of a conditional statement, leave the antecedent (the first part unchanged, change the \[\text{if-then}\] connective to and) and negate the consequent the second part.
By using following representation in statement,
\[p:\] I am in Los Angeles.
\[q:\] I am in California.
Symbolic representation of statement is\[p\to q\].
Then negation of \[p\to q\] is
\[p\wedge \sim q\]
The statement form of \[p\wedge \sim q\] is “If I am in Los Angeles and I am not in California.”
The negation of provided conditional statement is “If I am in Los Angeles and I am not in California.”
