The word obtuse means dull or blunt. In maths obtuse angles are angles which are greater than 90 degrees but less than 180 degrees.

An obtuse angle?? Well an obtuse angle is an angle that is more than 90 degrees. Less than 90 degrees would be an acute angle.

The word can also be applied to a person who is insensitive or slow to understand. In this sense it is considered to be a criticism and/or insult.
