Conditional Statement

Original: If it is warm outside, then I wear shorts.
This is true because warm weather calls for less layers, and that would mean wearing shorts.
Inverse: If it is not warm outside, then I do not wear shorts.
This is false because even if it is not warm outside, I can still wear shorts.
Converse: If I am wearing shorts, then it is warm outside.
This is false because I can wear shorts in the winter. It is ultimately my decision on what clothes to wear.
Contrapositive: If I did not wear shorts, then it was not warm outside.
This is true because if I wore pants, then it was too cold to wear shorts. I do get cold easily.
