b) Explain with example the use of conditional connectives in the forming of prepositions. (2 Marks)

=========Solution Start here=========================

Conditional Connectives: Give any two preposition p and q, we denote the statement 'If p, then q' by p --> q. we also call p the hypothesis and q the conclusion. Further a statement of the form p -->q is called a conditional statement or a conditional preposition.

Example: The conditional proposition If m is in Z, then m belongs to Q'. The hypothesis is 'm belong Z' and the conclusion is 'm belong Q'.

Mathematically, we can write this statement as

m belong Z --> m belong Q.
