The aim of this paper is to show the relationship between inconsistent and contradictory matrices of data obtained as a result of the pairwise comparison of factors in the sense of the analytic hierarchy process. The consistency check is performed to ensure that judgements are neither random nor illogical. This paper shows that even if a matrix will pass a consistency test successfully, it can be contradictory. Moreover an algorithm of checking contradictions is proposed.
