Classify each triangle as acute, right, or obtuse.

48.5, 39, 32.5

1 answer

To classify a triangle based on its angle measures, we need to determine if the triangle is acute, right, or obtuse:

  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.

For the angles provided: 48.5 degrees, 39 degrees, and 32.5 degrees, we can analyze them as follows:

  • 48.5 degrees < 90 degrees
  • 39 degrees < 90 degrees
  • 32.5 degrees < 90 degrees

Since all the angles are less than 90 degrees, the triangle is classified as an acute triangle.
