Question
It is possible to have a triangle in which two of the angles are right angles.
Options
True
False
Solution
This statement is False.
Explanation:
Let two angles of a triangle be 90° and the third angle be x.
Then 90° + 90° + x = 180° ......(Angle sum property)
⇒ x = 180° – 180° = 0°
Which is not possible.
