How many sides does a obtuse isosceles triangle have?

By definition, all triangles have 3 sides.


Do all triangles have two acute angles?

INCORRECT: No because there is a obtuse triangle and a right triangleCORRECT ANSWERYes all triangles have at least two acute angles. Obtuse triangles and right triangles also have at least two acute angles. They are called obtuse triangles and right triangles because by definition they are triangles with ONE obtuse angle and ONE right angle. So therefore they both have 2 acute angles. Also for an acute triangle, it would have 3 acute angles.


What triangle has at least one obtuse angle?

-- If a triangle has an obtuse angle in it, then it's called an obtuse triangle. -- No triangle can have more than one obtuse angle in it . -- Right triangles, acute triangles, and equilateral triangles don't have any obtuse angles in them.


What types of triangles can have an obtuse angle?

An obtuse triangle


Is it false an obtuse triangle is never right?

It's true that an obtuse triangle is never right because obtuse triangles are bigger than right triangles, which are 90 degrees. Obtuse Triangles are always bigger than Right triangles(90 degrees) , so It is true.


Are two obtuse triangles always similar?

Not always, sometimes two obtuse triangles are similar and sometimes they are not similar.


Are triangles always regular?

How can you classify triangles by their angles?

Triangles may be right triangles equilateral triangles acute or obtuse triangles


Are all obtuse triangles similar?

No not all obtuse triangular are similar. :)


Given n points in the plane you draw all possible triangles whose vertices are any three of the given points Atleast how many of them are obtuse-angled triangles?

The least number of obtuse triangles, if all possible triangles are drawn for n points in a plane, is zero. If all the n points lie in a straight line, no triangles are possible and so no obtuse triangles are able to be drawn; thus for any number n, there is a possibility that no obtuse triangles can be drawn, so the least possible number of obtuse triangles drawn is zero.
