A triangle with a 90 degree angle and two acute angles is a right angle triangle.
right angle=90 degrees and a right triangle has one side of it that forms a 90 degree angle...as for the naming "right" don't know but it refers to 90 degree angle
The longest side a right angle triangle is its hypotenuse
Its base or adjacent side if it's a right angle triangle.

Any triangle with a 90 degree angle is called a right triangle.
No. It depends what you call "base", really. The longest side is opposite the right angle.

It is simply a right angle triangle but if the sides were the same then it is an isoceles right angle triangle

There is the Pythagorean relationship between the side lengths. Given a right triangle with sides a, b, & c : Sides a & b are adjacent to the right angle, and side c is opposite the right angle, and this side is called the hypotenuse. Side c is always the longest side, and can be found by c2 = a2 + b2 The 2 angles (which are not the right angle) will add up to 90° Given one of those angles (call it A), then sin(A) = (opposite)/(hypotenuse) {which is the length of the side opposite of angle A, divided by the length of the hypotenuse} cos(A) = (adjacent)/(hypotenuse), and tan(A) = (opposite)/(adjacent).
A triangle containing an obtuse angle is an obtuse triangle.
a 'SCALENE' triangle. ; No equal sides, and no equal angles. An ISOSCELES triangle has two equal sides and two equal angles. An EQUILATERAL tringle has three equal sides and three equal angles all at 60 degrees. A RIGHT ANGLED triangle has one right angle (90 degrees) in it.
All triangles have interior angles that add to 180 degrees. Let's call the 3 angles A,B, and C and angles A the 90 degree one. If 90+B+C=180. If angle B was the angle greater than 90 degrees (obtuse) then C would be 0 or negative degrees. Therefore, a right triangle can't have an obtuse interior angle. Sum of all angles in a triangle is 180o. In a right triangle one angle is 90o and other two angles sum up to 90o. A right triangle can't have an obtuse angle because obtuse angle is greater than 90o. So, sum of the two angles(right angle and obtuse angle) will be greater than 180o which is not possible.
