Question 21 Mark
Can a triangle have: Two obtuse angles?
Answer
No.
 For example: Let the two angles be $120^\circ $ and $150^\circ $. Then, their sum will be $270^\circ ​$, which cannot form a triangle.

Question 111 Mark
Can a triangle have: Each angles less than $60^\circ $?
Answer
No.
For example:
Let the two angles be $50^\circ $ and $40^\circ $, which on adding, gives $90^\circ .$
Thus, they cannot form a triangle whose third angle is $180^\circ - 90^\circ = 90^\circ ​,$ which is greater than $60^\circ .$

Question 171 Mark
Draw a $\triangle\text{ABC}$. Take a point $D$ on $BC$. Join $AD$. How many triangles do you get? Name them.
Answer
In $\triangle\text{ABC},$ D is a point on $BC$ and $AD$ is joined.
Now we get triangles $\triangle\text{ABC},$ $\triangle\text{ABD}$ and $\triangle\text{ADC}.$

Question 211 Mark
Can a triangle have: Each angles more than $60^\circ $?
Answer
No.
For example:
Let the two angles be $70^\circ $​ and $80^\circ $, which on adding, gives $150^\circ .$
They cannot form a triangle whose third angle is $180^\circ ​ - 150^\circ = 30^\circ ,$ which is less than $60^\circ .$

Question 221 Mark
Can a triangle have: Two right angles?
Answer
No.
For example:
If the two angles are $90^\circ$ each, then the sum of two angles of a triangle will be $180^\circ$, which is not possible.

Question 241 Mark
Can a triangle have: Two acute angles?
Answer
Yes.
For example:
Let the two angles be $50^\circ $ and $60^\circ $​, which on adding, gives $110^\circ $.
 They can easily form a triangle whose third angle is $180^\circ - 110^\circ = 70^\circ .$
