The law of contrapositive states that a conditional statement of the form "If P, then Q" (P → Q) is logically equivalent to its contrapositive, "If not Q, then not P" (¬Q → ¬P). This means that if the original statement is true, the contrapositive must also be true, and vice versa. This principle is widely used in mathematical proofs and logical reasoning to demonstrate the validity of arguments.
