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:

The problem is telling you to find g ( f ( x ) )

Since we know that f(x) is square root of x, we can put the function this way.

g(√x)

Then, we use  √x as our x in our g(x) function.

You plug in  √x for x and you solve.

(√x ) ^2 is just x.

Finally the answer is

x-3
