Question

Answer 1

Hello Mariela

 

The definition of an obtuse angle is one that is greater and 90° and less than 180°

90<a<180

 

The smallest obtuse angle is 91°

If we bisect this we have two angles 45.5° each.

These are both acute since they are less than 90°.

 

The largest obtuse angle is 179°

If we bisect this we have two angles 89.5° each.
These are both acute since they are less than 90°.

 

The answer is A. Always acute.
