180° measures more than 90°, so according to the given statement, a plane angle is also an obtuse angle, and that is incorrect. From that, we conclude that the statement is not a good definition.

<h3>Is the following statement a good definition? </h3>

The given statement is:

"An obtuse angle is an angle whose measure is greater than 90°."

This is the common, but incorrect, definition for obtuse angles.

We know that an angle that measures 180° is called a plane angle and by definition, a plane angle is not an obtuse angle.

And the angles larger than 180° (and smaller than 360°) are the reflex angles.

Now, 180° measures more than 90°, so according to the given statement, a plane angle is also an obtuse angle, and that is incorrect. From that, we conclude that the statement is not a good definition.

Answer:

Y=(X-7)/2

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

X=2t+3 -----> equation A

Y=t-2 -----> t=Y+2 -----> equation B

Substitute equation B in equation A

X=2(Y+2)+3

X=2Y+4+3

X=2Y+7

solve for Y

2Y=X-7

Y=(X-7)/2
