In an obtuse triangle ABC, where angle B > 90, the relation between sides is:

Ab^2 = a^2 + c^2

Bb^2 < a^2 + c^2

Cb^2 > a^2 + c^2

Db = a + c

✓ Correct Answer: C — b^2 > a^2 + c^2

For an obtuse triangle, the square of the side opposite the obtuse angle is greater than the sum of the squares of the other two sides.
