Let's evaluate the four given conditional statements, and see if we can find one that is different from the others. &If today is Tuesday, &then tomorrow is Wednesday This is a true statement, since Wednesday comes after Tuesday. &If it is Independence day, &then it is July Independence day is on the 4th of July, so this is also true. &If an angle is acute, &then its measure is less than90^(∘) An acute angle is defined as between 0^(∘) and 90^(∘). Therefore, this statement is true as well. &If you are an athlete, &then you play soccer This is not a true statement, as you do not have to play soccer to be an athlete. You can, for example, be a tennis player. Since the last statement is not a true statement, it does not belong.
