A triangle can not contain two right angles. This is because:

  1. A triangle contains three separate angles
  2. The sum of the angles in a triangle is equal to 180 degrees
  3. A right angle is 90 degrees

Because 90 + 90 = 180, that leaves the remaining angle in the triangle at 0 degrees, making the shape not a triangle but a line segment.
