Best Answer

a quadrilateral can have from 0 to 4 right angles.

But it can't have exactly three right angles. The interior angles of a quadrilateral sum to 360 degrees. If it had three right angles and x were the measure of the fourth angle:

3*90+x=360

x=360-270=90

So if it has three right angles, the fourth angle would be a right angle as well.

Can you draw a quadrilateral that has three right angles?

The sum of the interior angles of a quadrilateral is 360 degrees. If three of the angles are right angles, that is, of 90 degrees each, the the fourth must be 90 degrees. So you can have a quadrilateral with three right angles but its fourth angle will also be a right angle. So exactly 3 right angles is not possible.
