Neither. An acute triangle has all angles less than 90 degrees. An obtuse triangle has one angle more than 90 degrees. A right triangle is simply just a right triangle, since it has one angle of 90 degrees.

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)
-- If a triangle has an obtuse angle in it, then it's called an obtuse triangle. -- No triangle can have more than one obtuse angle in it . -- Right triangles, acute triangles, and equilateral triangles don't have any obtuse angles in them.
If all three angles of a triangle measure less that 90 degrees (if all three angles are acute), the triangle is an acute triangle. A triangle that has a right angle (an angle the measures exactly 90 degrees) is a right triangle. (The other 2 angles will be acute angles.) A triangle that has an angle that is greater than 90 degrees (an obtuse angle), is an obtuse triangle. (The other 2 angles will be acute angles.)
obtuse
The shape that has 1 acute angle, 1 obtuse angle, and 1 right angle is a scalene triangle. In a scalene triangle, all three angles are different, so it is possible for one angle to be acute (less than 90 degrees), one angle to be obtuse (greater than 90 degrees), and one angle to be a right angle (exactly 90 degrees). This unique combination of angles makes the scalene triangle a versatile geometric shape.
