Mathematics is a discipline where exactitude is all-important.

Whether all acute triangles are 'the same' depends on what you mean by same. Here are some possibilities for 'same', and whether all acute triangles qualify.

  • The triangles are congruent (one fits exactly on top of another) ? No.
  • The triangles are similar (same three angles) ? No
  • Each of the three angles is less than 900 ? Yes
  • Same no of sides ? Yes
  • A polygon ? Yes.
  • A plane figure ? Yes.

All acute triangles meet the last four criteria; some may meet the first two as well, but not all of them.
