Can a triangle have two right angles, and why or why not?(1 point)

Responses

Yes, because it would be a right triangle.

No, because a triangle must have an obtuse angle.

Yes, because 90 + 90 = 180

No, because there needs to be a third angle.

No, because there needs to be a third angle.

A triangle has three angles that must sum up to 180 degrees. If a triangle had two right angles (each 90 degrees), the total would be 180 degrees, leaving no room for a third angle, which is not possible in a triangle.
