Answer:

If a polygon has 3 sides, then the polygon is a triangle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Bold = hypothesis

Italic = conclusion

Statement:

If p, then q.

Converse: If q, then p.

To find the converse, switch the hypothesis and conclusion.

Statement:

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

Now we switch the hypothesis and the conclusion to write the converse of the statement.

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

We fix a little the wording:

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

Answer: If a polygon has 3 sides, then the polygon is a triangle.
