Negation - Logical Opposite - fitting into LR Questions

Hello all! I understand how Negation is different from the Contrapositive, as with Negation we are denying the relationship / conditionality (I think, right?), but I'm struggling to figure out where the Negation aspect fits into LR Question application - types of questions and how an answer / stimulus would fit into the mold - thoughts?

    @DByrne07 yes negation is denying the relationship. Off the top of my head, It's helpful for must be false and especially necessary assumption question types. In NA, the negation of the correct answer choice wrecks the conclusion/argument. So it's helpful to have that skill to double check when you're down to one or two answer choices.
