An equilateral triangle has the same length for each side, and the same angle for each vertex. All triangles have a mathematical property that states that the sum of all three angles in any triangle will equal 180 degrees. Since we know that all angles are the same, and there are three of them, each angle must be 60 degrees. An acute angle is one that is less than 90 degrees, and thus, each of the three angles are acute.

equilateral triangles are acute because equilateral angles equal 60 degrees and that is lower then 90 degrees which makes it acute.

Because each of the 3 interior angles measures 60 degrees which is an acute angle
