    If a shape is a triangle, then it has 3 sides.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To find the converse of a conditional, switch the hypothesis and the conclusion. You may need to adjust the wording a little to make sense.

    Conditional: If a shape has 3 sides, then it's a triangle.

    Hypothesis: a shape has 3 sides

    Conclusion: it's a triangle

    Converse:

    If a shape is a triangle, then it has 3 sides.
