Answer 1

To classify the triangle based on its angles:

• An acute triangle has all angles measuring less than 90°.
• A right triangle has one angle measuring exactly 90°.
• An obtuse triangle has one angle measuring greater than 90°.

In this case, the angles are 46°, 51°, and 83°.

• All of these angles are less than 90°, which means the triangle is an acute triangle.

So the correct response is acute triangle.
