option D for Edgu hope this helps :)

Answer 2

The length of the given triangle: $QR = 6.003, QS = 8.218, RS = 6.003$.

The given triangle QRS is an isosceles triangle because $QR = RS$.

What is an isosceles triangle?

An isosceles triangle is a triangle that has two equal sides.

In the given triangle, the length of the sides are as follows:

$QR = \sqrt{9 + 27.04} = \sqrt{36.04} = 6.003$

$QS = \sqrt{64 + 3.53} = \sqrt{67.53} = 8.218$

$RS = \sqrt{25 + 11.04} = \sqrt{36.04} = 6.003$

(Negative values are not taken)

In the given triangle,  $QR = RS$.

Therefore, the given triangle QRS is an isosceles triangle.
