The correct Answer is:
To determine the type of triangle based on the given angles, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Given Angles**: We have two angles of the triangle, which are 21° and 38°. 2. **Calculate the Third Angle**: - We know that the sum of the angles in a triangle is always 180°. - Let the third angle be \( x \). - Therefore, we can set up the equation: \[ 21° + 38° + x = 180° \] 3. **Simplify the Equation**: - First, add the two given angles: \[ 21° + 38° = 59° \] - Now substitute this back into the equation: \[ 59° + x = 180° \] 4. **Solve for \( x \)**: - To find \( x \), subtract 59° from both sides: \[ x = 180° - 59° \] - Calculate the value: \[ x = 121° \] 5. **Determine the Type of Triangle**: - We now have all three angles: 21°, 38°, and 121°. - Since one of the angles (121°) is greater than 90°, the triangle is classified as an **obtuse triangle**. ### Conclusion: The triangle with angles 21°, 38°, and 121° is an **obtuse triangle**. ---
