Given, "If angles are congruent, then the measures of the angles are equal." Identify the converse.
If the measures of the angles are equal, then the angles are congruent.
"If angles are not congruent, then the measures of the angles are not equal."
If the measures of the angles are not equal, then the angles are not congruent.
If the angles are not congruent, then the measure of the angles are equal.
