Answer:
D. Obtuse.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that in
and
. We are asked to classify our given
.
We can see that angle M and angle P are acute angles as their measure is less than 90 degrees.
Let us find the measure of angle P using angle sum property of triangles, which states that sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180 degrees.
So we can set an equation as:
Upon substituting our given values we will get,
As measure of angle N is 98 degrees, so angle N is an obtuse angle.
Since a triangle having an angle that measures more than 90 degrees is called an obtuse triangle, therefore, is an obtuse triangle and option D is the correct choice.
