Answer 1

Answer:

Right, I am an idiot so i might be wrong

Step-by-step explanation:

Every triangle has three angles which sum to 180 degrees.

There are three types of triangles based on the measures of its angles.

Right Triangle - Has one 90 degree angle

Acute Triangle - All angles less than 90 degrees

Obtuse Triangle - One angle greater than 90 degrees

In this example we are given 2 angles and must find the measure of the 3rd.

a + 56 + 34 = 180

a + 90 = 180

a = 90

Therefore, it is a Right Triangle.
