Can a scalene triangle have an obtuse angle?
Yup, it sure can! It is the triangle that is most seen to have an obtuse angle unlike the isosceles or equilateral. These triangles are more seen to have acute angles.
How are acute and obtuse triangles the same?
Similarities between these and all triangles are:They all have 3 sides and 3 angles. The sum of the three angles adds up to 180°.An acute angle is less than 90 degrees. An acute triangle has all three sides are acute.An obtuse angle is more than 90 degrees. An obtuse triangle has one angle which is obtuse, and because of the 180° rule above, the other two angles will be acute.So all triangles will have at least two acute angles.
Does a triangle have 2 obtuse angles?
Some have one obtuse interior angle, others have none. A triangle can have no more than one obtuse angle.
Can an obtuse triangle have more than one obtuse angle?
No, an obtuse triangle can not have more than one obtuse angle. This is because all of the angles have to add up to 180 and the smallest obtuse angle you can have is 91 degrees. So 180-91=89. 89 degrees is the angle that you need to complete the triangle and it is an acute angle. Therefore, you can not have more than one obtuse angle in an obtuse triangle.
What is an obtuse angle and acute angle?
An obtuse angle is an angle more than 90 degrees but an acute angle is an angle less than 90 degrees.
