A biconditional statement in logic is a statement that is true if both parts are true or both parts are false. This concept is important in mathematical proofs and logical reasoning. For example, the statement "A triangle is equilateral if and only if it has three equal sides" is a biconditional statement. Understanding biconditional statements helps in developing critical thinking skills and solving complex logical problems.
