Here is the two-part question...
a. The word GEOMETRY contains the words "try" and "gee". However, the word GEOMETRY does not contain the word "motor" because the letter "O" does not appear twice. Besides the two words given and the word GEOMETRY, find FOUR (4) other words (of at least three letters) that can be formed with the letters in GEOMETRY. Proper names are allowed, and I will give a bonus to the FIRST student that finds the longest word.
b. Look at the concept of geometric mean on page 359 in your Geometry textbook. Find the geometric mean of the numbers 6 and 20. If it is a decimal, round to the nearest tenth.
