We have no problem fitting an equilateral triangle into a square. It depends on the size of the triangle and the size of the square whether one can be fit inside the other.

Are all equallateral triangles acute?

-- An 'acute triangle' is a triangle in which each of the three interior angles is an acute angle. -- Each of the three interior angles in every equilateral triangle is a 60-degree angle. -- Any angle of less than 90 degrees is an acute angle. -- It sure looks like every equilateral triangle does fit the definition of 'acute triangle'.

A triangle CAN fit that description, if it is "equilateral" (equi means equal, later- means sides, so "equilateral" means all sides are equal). If all sides are equal then all angles will be, too.

How many squares fit in an hexagon?

Very many if they are much smaller than the hexagon.If the square is to have the same length side as an equilateral hexagon and you are not allowed to cut the square then one.If you are allowed to cut the square but it (they) have to have the same length side as an equilateral hexagon then: about 2.6 [Exactly (3 * (Sqrt 3)) / 2 ]
