Because an obtuse angle is greater than 90 degrees by definition and a right angle is 90 degrees by definition, so an obtuse triangle would need to have both a right angle and an obtuse angle, which would exceed the number of degrees than a triangle can have, which is 180 degrees.

Can an obtuse triangle be an right triangle?
No an obtuse triangle cant be a right angle because,a right angle is 90 degrees. a obtuse triangle is over 90 degrees
The name of a triangle with one right angle?
a right triangle and triangles cant have more than one right angle
Why cant a triangle have more than 1 obtuse angles?
Because the 3 interior angles of any triangle always add up to 180 degrees. And so it follows that 2 obtuse angles would add up to over 180 degrees.
Why cant a triangle have a reflex angle?
The three interior angles in a triangle must add up to 180o, and a reflex angle is one that is bigger than 180o. This makes it impossible for a triangle to have any interior reflex angles.
What are the various aspects of Pythagoras theorem?
Pythagoras' theorem states that for any right angle triangle its hypotenuse when squared is equal to the sum of its squared sides.
Can an obtuse triangle be an right triangle?
No an obtuse triangle cant be a right angle because,a right angle is 90 degrees. a obtuse triangle is over 90 degrees
Is a right triangle an obtuse angle?
Certainly not, if you measure a right angled triangle the it comes to 90 degrees you only get an obtuse angle if you have OVER 90 degrees.
Is a right triangle congruent to an obtuse triangle?
no it cant be...
Does a right triangle have have one right angle?
Yes there cant be more than one right angle in a right triangle
Why cant you have two obtuse angles in a triangle?
Angle sum property of a triangle states that the sum of angles in any triangle should be 180 degree. An angle greater than 90 degree is an obtuse angle. If we have 2 obtuse angles in a triangle, say, 95 degree, 100 degree & 50, it always tend to violate the angle sum property of the triangle. So we cannot have 2 obtuse angles in a triangle.
The name of a triangle with one right angle?
a right triangle and triangles cant have more than one right angle
What is the most right angles a triangle can have?
1 is all it can haveOne and two acute angles
Why cant there be a obtuse angle in a right triagle?
A triangles angles must add up to 180 degrees, no more or less
If an angle measures more than 90 then it is an obtuse angle What is the converse of this statement?
its is the differents in the way it is said if its not more than 90 then it cant be obtuse
Why cant a triangle have more than 1 obtuse angles?
Because the 3 interior angles of any triangle always add up to 180 degrees. And so it follows that 2 obtuse angles would add up to over 180 degrees.
Why cant a right triangle be an equilateral?
An equilateral triangle can't be a right triangle since an equilateral triangle has all 60° angles, which are NOT right angles [measuring 90°]. If a triangle is a right triangle, then it has a right angle!
Is it possible for a triangle to have two right angles?
yes it is possible there are many different ways to draw a triangle the right angled triangle is one of them :) hope i helpedI'm sorry for the previous answer but it is wrong, it is impossible for a triangle to have more than two 90 degree angles. A triangle has 180 degrees in total, so if you have two right angle triangles they would equal 180 degrees and your third angle would have 0 degrees which is impossible.So no you cant have 2 right angles in a triangle
