What are the 3 way an naming angles?
Acute, obtuse, and right.
Does a kite have more than one obtuse angle?
A traditional kite shape (a point at the top, then widest about 1/3 of the way down, then tapering to another point at the bottom) has one, two or three obtuse (>90 degree) angles. The two angles at the widest point, about 1/3 of the way from the top, are generally obtuse, but don't have to be. The bottom angle is almost never obtuse. The top angle is sometimes obtuse. So if the top angle is obtuse but the side angles are not, a kite shape has one obtuse angle. If the top angle is not, but the side angles are, it has two obtuse angles. If the top and side angles are obtuse it has three.
If an angle measures more than 90 degrees then it is a obtuse angle What is the converse of this statment?
The converse statement is that if the angle is an obtuse angle then it measures more than 90 degrees. Does not add much by way of information but there you go!
What is one way an obtuse triangle and a right triangle are different?
An obtuse triangle has one angle greater than 90 degrees and a right triangle has one angle exactly 90 degrees.
What set of numbers is the acute and which is the obtuse numbers on a protractor?
A right angle sits at 90o, which is right in the middle. Anything less than 90o, or to the left on the protractor are acute angles. Anything to the right, or bigger than 90o, would be considered an obtuse angle. A good way to remember this is that an acute angle is "a cute little angle."

Is it possible for a triangle to have both a right angle and an obtuse angle?
No. An "obtuse" angle is greater than 90 degrees. (An angle of less than 90 degrees is an "acute" angle.) Since a Right angle is a 90 degree angle, there is no way to have another angle in the triangle that is "obtuse", because then the sum of the first TWO angles would equal more than 180 degrees. The sum of all THREE angles in a triangle sum exactly 180 degrees.
If an angle measures more than 90 then it is an obtuse angle What is the converse of this statement?
its is the differents in the way it is said if its not more than 90 then it cant be obtuse
Is 100 degrees an obtuse angle?
An obtuse angle is any angle greater than 90 degrees and less than 180 degrees.Yes. An obtuse angle is geometrically greater that a right angle. Any number degree larger than 90 degrees is obtuse, as any number degree lesser than 90 degrees is acute.An easy way to remember this:Acute - A cute lil' angleObtuse - Obese, big angle
Is obtuse angle more than 90 degree?
Yes. An obtuse angle is geometrically greater that a right angle. Any number degree larger than 90 degrees is obtuse, as any number degree lesser than 90 degrees is acute. An easy way to remember this: Acute - A cute lil' angle Obtuse - Obese, big angle
How do you bisect an obtuse angle?
In the same way that you bisect an acute triangle. Alternatively, you could extend one of the rays of the obtuse angle so that you have an acute angle. Bisect that angle and then draw a perpendicular to the bisector of the acute angle through the vertex.

What is one way an obtuse triangle and a right triangle are different?
An obtuse triangle has one angle greater than 90 degrees and a right triangle has one angle exactly 90 degrees.
What is one way obtuse and right triangle are different?
An Obtuse Angle is any angle that has a degree between 91 degrees and 180 degrees. A right angle is exactly 90 degrees. Take a protractor and look at the 90 degree mark. If you see a dot near the bottom half, you go up to the 90 degree mark and to the side the 0 degree. It forms perpendicular lines. That means it is a right angle. The only reason a right angle is different than an obtuse angle is because the obtuse angle has a greater angle than the right angle.
Why is it useful to have more than one way of naming an angle?
dont know either!
