Question

Classify the following triangle as acute, obtuse, or right.

Answer 1

Answer:

A. Obtuse

F. Scalene

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two ways to classify a triangle:

by angles:

Obtuse - has one angle that is greater than 90°

Right - has one angle that is 90°

Acute - has all angles less than 90°

and by side lengths:

Equilateral - all sides are equal

Isosceles - two sides are equal

Scalene - no sides are equal

In this triangle, there is an obtuse angle (A. Obtuse).

∡ = 132°, which is greater than 90°.

There are no equal sides (F. Scalene).

6 ≠ 7 ≠ 11.9
