How many obtuse angles are in an obtuse triangle?
No triangle can have more than one obtuse angle. If it has one, then it's an obtuse triangle.
Can an obtuse triangle be a scalene triangle?
Yes, because as long as one of the triangle's angles are more than 90 degrees and the other 2 are different, it is obtuse and scalene. For example, since all triangle's angles add up to 180 degrees, if a triangle had the angles: 100,30, and 50, it would be obtuse and scalene.
Can you have a triangle with acute right and obtuse angles on it?
No. "Obtuse" means more than 90 degrees. "Obtuse" plus a right angle = more than 180 degrees.But the triangle has exactly 180 degrees in its 3 angles. So the same triangle can't have a right angleand an obtuse angle in it.
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.
Why can there only be one obtuse angle in a triangle?
Sum of angles of triangle = 180o: minimum size of obtuse angle is greater than 90o; It is not possible to have two angles of a triangle which total more than 180o.
