A shape with three congruent sides and three angles smaller than 90 degrees is known as an **acute equilateral triangle**.
In an equilateral triangle, all three sides are of equal length, and all three angles are equal. Since the sum of the angles in a triangle is always 180 degrees, each angle in an equilateral triangle is \( \frac{180}{3} = 60 \) degrees, which is less than 90 degrees. Thus, an equilateral triangle meets the criteria you've described.
