The following set of numbers 2√3, 4√2, and 3√5, can be the measures of the sides of an obtuse triangle.

A triangle is a polygon with three sides and three vertices.

To know if a set of number is a valid measure of the sides of a triangle, it must follow the Triangle Inequality Theorem which states that the sum of any two sides must be greater than the third side, such that a + b > c, a + c > b, and b + c > a.

let a = 2√3, b = 4√2, and c = 3√5

a + b > c     2√3 + 4√2 > 3√5     9.12 > 6.71     True

a + c > b     2√3 + 3√5 > 4√2     10.17 > 5.66    True

b + c > a     4√2 + 3√5 > 2√3     12.37 > 3.46     True

To know what type of triangle based on the length of its side:

1. Take the sum of the squares of the two smaller sides.

(2√3)^2 + (4√2)^2 = 44

2. Compare it to the square of the largest side.

(3√5)^2 = 45

44 < 45

If the sum of the squares of the 2 is larger than the square of the 3rd, it is an acute triangle.

if they are equal, it is a right triangle

if they are smaller, then it is an obtuse triangle.

Hence, 2√3, 4√2, and 3√5 can be the measure of the sides of an obtuse triangle.

Knowing that the final course grade is determined in the manner described above, Kyra can figure out what grade she needs to ear
ipn [44]

Answer: Kyra must earn at least 100% on the final exam.

Step-by-step explanation: Kyra's scores have been accumulating from Q1 to Q4 and then the mid term exam. Her scores are outlined as follows;

Q1 = 92, Q2 = 85, Q3 = 88, Q4 = 84, mid-term = 89.

Observe carefully that the data set (number of observed data) is 5.

What she needs now is a final average score of at least 90% after her final exam. She can use this to determine what she needs to score in her final exam. In other words, now that she has a average score, all she needs is a total of all her scores up till her final exam. Note that after writing her final exam, the data set would be six and no longer five.

Before writing her final exam, Kyra's average score was calculated as;

Average = (92 + 85 + 88 + 84 + 89)/5

However after she must have written her final exam, her average would be calculated as;

Average = (92 + 85 + 88 + 84 + 89 + x)/6

Where average is given as 90 and x is the final exam score, you now have

90 = (438 +x)/6

90*6 = 438 + x

540 = 438 + x

Subtract 438 from both sides of the equation

102 = x

Therefore from the results shown, Kyra must score up to 102% in her final exam. However, knowing that she cannot obtain a score higher than 100%, we can conclude that she must score nothing less than 100% (a hundred percent) in her final exam.
