A triangle with side lengths 2 in., 5 in., and 4 in. is an acute triangle Thus, the triangle is not acute because 2² + 4² < 5².
<h3>What is the acute angle?</h3>
An acute angle is defined as the measure of an angle that is less than 90 degrees.
The square of the hypotenuse of a right triangle with the given sides would be 2² +4² = 20.
So, that hypotenuse would be √20, about 4.47.
The long side of this triangle is longer than that, hence the angle opposite is larger than 90°. The triangle with sides 2, 4, and 5 is an obtuse triangle.
The triangle is not acute because 2² + 4² < 5²
