Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete as the sides of the triangle are not given.

However, I'll answer this question using a general scope.

Let the sides of the triangle be w, x and y.

Where w and x are the shorter sides.

The following conditions exist:

1. If w² + x² < y², then the triangle is obtuse.

2. If w² + x² > y², then the triangle is acute

3. Lastly, if w² + x² = y², then the triangle is right angled

So, take the sides of the triangles; take square of the two shorter sides and compare it with the square of the longest side.

Compare this with the (3) conditions above to answer the question.
