Question

Choose the appropriate triangle according to the given:

Angle B is less than 90 degrees

Angle A is less than 90 degrees

Video Solution

Solution Steps

00:08 Let's begin by choosing the correct triangle.
00:12 Pick the triangle where corners A and B are not forming a right angle.
00:18 Great! That's our solution.

Step-by-Step Solution

To solve this problem, we need to identify what type of triangle aligns with having both given angles, Angle A and Angle B, less than 9090^\circ.

  • Step 1: Understand that for any triangle, the sum of the internal angles is always 180180^\circ.
  • Step 2: Since both Angle A and Angle B are less than 9090^\circ, they are acute. A triangle with two acute angles implies that the third angle should also be acute because all angles should sum up to less than 180180^\circ.
  • Step 3: We need to examine available options to determine if any comply with these properties of a triangle.

Now, let's analyze the given choices:

  • Choice 1 shows a triangle with a right angle, which contradicts the condition that both Angle A and Angle B are less than 9090^\circ.
  • Choice 2 explicitly indicates that none of the options are correct, suggesting no triangle fits the conditions given in the problem statement.
  • Choice 3, similarly to Choice 1, can't have two angles being less than 9090^\circ if one is a right angle.
  • Choice 4 again has a right angle, contradicting the initial condition.

All given diagrammatic options have a right angle (based on the SVG descriptions or their right-angled appearance), which directly violates the condition of both Angle A and Angle B being acute.

Therefore, the most appropriate answer is: None of the options.

Answer

None of the options.
