Answer:
2 acute and 1 right
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of angles of a triangle is always 180 ° .
Right angles are 90 ° , and obtuse angles are more than 90 ° . If each of the angles in the triangle is more than 0°, there obviously cannot be two angles that measure 90 ° or more. Just the sum of those two would be 180 ° or more, and that sum doesn't include the third angle.
So, any triangle can have at most one angle that is 90 ° or more (right or obtuse). The remaining two angles must be acute for the sum of angles to be 180 ° .
2 acute and 1 right angle can form a triangle
