Answer 1

The angles of the triangle are 46°, 51°, and 83°. To determine the type of triangle, we can categorize it based on its angles:

- An **acute triangle** has all angles less than 90°.
- A **right triangle** has one angle that equals 90°.
- An **obtuse triangle** has one angle that is greater than 90°.

Since all the angles in this triangle are less than 90°, it is classified as an **acute triangle**.

So, the correct answer is: **acute triangle**.
