To analyze each statement, we start by calculating the square root of 9.

\[ \sqrt{9} = 3 \]

Now we can evaluate each of the given statements:

  1. π < √9: This means π < 3. However, π is approximately 3.14, so this statement is false.

  2. π > √9: This means π > 3. As π is approximately 3.14, this statement is true.

  3. 3 < √9: This translates to 3 < 3, which is false.

  4. 3 > √9: This translates to 3 > 3, which is also false.

So the correct statement among the options is:

π > √9.
