How do we solve logic problems using conditionals?

When making a conditional there is a rule we have to remember
which is ,
            *   If hypotenuse then conclusion
Example:
            * If  the light is red, then the car will stop
                  
                 * If it is not raining, then i will take my umbrella


When sovling the conditional to a inverse you have to,
           * if not hypotenuse then not conclusion. 
Example:
            * conditional- if i walk all day then i am tired
             * inverse- if i do not walk all day then i am not tired 



Solving a conditional to a converse,
             *switch the hypotenuse and the conclusion.
Example:
            * conditional - if i walk all day then i am tired
            * inverse- if i am tired then i walk all day


Solving a conditional to a contrapositive (logical equivalent) follow this rule,
            * if not conclusion then not Hypotenuse
Example:
          * concditional- if i walk all day then i am tired
          * contrapositive- if i am not tired, then i did not walk all day
