4 MINUTES LEFT! MY LAST QUESTION WILL FOREVER BE GRATEFUL PLS HELP WILL GIVE BRANLIEST!! AT LEAST TAKE A LOOK!!!! PLS I AM BEGGING!!!

1. Molly is trying to find a relationship between the largest angle and largest side of a triangle. She has drawn dozens of triangles, and measured their parts. She’s ready to make a conjecture. What kind of reasoning was Molly using? Explain how you know it’s that kind of reasoning.

I know that Molly is using inductive reasoning because she is collecting data from drawing and measuring the triangles to form a hypothesis. This hypothesis is whether or not there is a relationship between the largest angle and the largest side of a triangle.

Molly is using "Inductive Reasoning".

Inductive reasoning is a reasoning that is based on patterns you observe. If you observe a pattern in several tries, you can use inductive reasoning to decide the result of the next try, (although you have to be aware that the conclusion you reach this way may not be valid).

A conclusion you reach using inductive reasoning is called a "conjecture". After measuring dozens of triangles, Molly has noticed a pattern, so she is ready to make a conjecture.

(It seems to me that a conjecture and a hypothesis are closely related.)

Now please arise from upon your knees.
