Are consecutive angles in a parallelogram always congruent?
Not unless the parallelogram is a rectangle. In every parallelogram, consecutive angles are supplementary.
Can two obtuse angle be adjacent angles?
Two angles are adjacent if they have the same vertex, share a side and do not overlap. It is, therefore, perfectly possible for two obtuse angles to be adjacent. In fact, every pair of adjacent angles in a hexagonal tessellation (a honeycomb, for example), consists of a pair of obtuse angles (120 degrees).
Why can you not have two obtuse angles in a triangle?
-- The sum of all three angles inside every triangle is always 180 degrees. -- An obtuse angle is an angle with more than 90 degrees in it. -- So two obtuse angles have more than 180 degrees between them. -- So they can't both be in the same triangle, unless at least part of one of them is left hanging out.
How many acute angles does an obtuse triangle have?
Every triangle must have at least 2 acute angles, otherwise it is impossible to make the 3 sides connect.
Is a rhombus acute?
No. Except for the case of a square (a special case of rhombus), a rhombus will have 2 congruent acute angles, and 2 congruent obtuse angles. The square has 4 right angles. In fact, every quadrilateral will have either all 4 angles equal to right angle (square and rectangle), or will have at least 1 obtuse angle (also at least 1 acute).
