To classify a triangle, you need to consider the measures of its angles:
1. **Acute Triangle**: All angles are less than 90 degrees.
2. **Right Triangle**: One angle is exactly 90 degrees.
3. **Obtuse Triangle**: One angle is greater than 90 degrees.
Since you mentioned that two of the classifications are correct, typically that would imply that the triangle could be classified in multiple ways based on the specific context or additional properties (like side lengths).
However, under standard classifications, a triangle cannot be both obtuse and acute at the same time, nor can it be both obtuse and right, nor right and acute.
If you provide the relevant angle measures of the triangle, I can help you determine which classifications are correct.
