Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Lets verify with Pythagorean:</u>
- 17² = 289
- 13² + 14² = 169 + 196 = 365
- 289 < 365
The angle opposite to a greater side is less than 90° and the sum of the squares are close.
It means all three angles<u> are less than 90°</u>.
With this the triangle is <u>acute</u>.
Correct choice is A.
Answer:
Ecological correlation
Step-by-step explanation:
According to a different source, the options that come with this question are:
- Ecological correlation
- Extrapolation
- Lurking variable
- Influential observation
Sarah should be careful about the use of an ecological correlation. An ecological correlation describes two variables that are group means, as opposed to a correlation between two variables that describe individuals. In this case, Sarah did pick 75 random students in each state. However, she then obtained the height and weight means for each state, and proceeded to compare these. Therefore, Sarah is not comparing individual values, but means. It is important to notice this, because correlations at a group level can be much higher than those at the individual level.
