On a flat surface only a right angled triangle has one 90o angle (right angle.) The others angles total 90o but aren'r 90o in their own right. Once you move into other forms of geometry, such as triangles on the surface of the Earth, the number of right angles in a triangle can be 3. Example: Lines leaving the equator perpendicular to the equator can meet at the pole at 90o

a triangle can have only one right angle because the sum of all the three angles of a triangle has to be 180. so if there are more than one right angles, the sum of the angles will exceed 180 and hence the plane figure will no longer be a triangle
None. An acute triangle is one in which all angles are acute. An obtuse triangle is one in which one of the angles is obtuse. A right angled triangle is one in which one angle is a right angle (90o)
False - and false ! Not ALL angles are right-angles - and a triangle has THREE sides !
in plane geometry: all triangles have 3 angles which add up to 180 degrees, in a right triangle one of those 3 angles is 90 degrees.
Yes. A scalene triangle is, by definition, a triangle with all sides and angles different. An equilateral triangle has all sides and angles the same, an isosceles triangle has 2 sides and 2 angles equal, and a right triangle has a right angle, but it is also possible for an isosceles triangle to be a right triangle.
