Let's solve the problem step by step.

Task:


Classify each triangle as acute, obtuse, or right based on its angles.

---

Definitions:



- Right triangle: Has one 90° angle (marked with a small square).
- Obtuse triangle: Has one angle greater than 90°.
- Acute triangle: All three angles are less than 90°.

We’ll examine each triangle in the image and determine its classification.

Step-by-step Analysis of Each Triangle:



1. Top-left triangle
- Has a square symbol at one angle → this is a 90° angle.
- Right triangle

2. Top-right triangle
- Has a square symbol at one angle → 90° angle.
- Right triangle

3. Middle-left triangle
- No right angle symbol, no obvious large angle.
- Looks like all angles are less than 90°.
- Acute triangle

4. Middle-center triangle
- No right angle symbol.
- One angle appears to be greater than 90° (widely open).
- Obtuse triangle

5. Middle-right triangle
- Has two hash marks on sides — but that indicates equal sides (isosceles), not angles.
- But there’s no right angle symbol, and it looks like all angles are less than 90°.
- However, check if any angle is wide: seems all acute.
- Acute triangle

6. Bottom-left triangle
- Has a square symbol90° angle.
- Right triangle

7. Bottom-center triangle
- Has two hash marks on two sides → isosceles.
- But no right angle, and one angle is clearly larger than 90° (the top one).
- Obtuse triangle

8. Bottom-right triangle
- Has three hash marks on sides → equilateral?
- But wait: three hash marks on sides suggest all sides equal → equilateral triangle.
- In an equilateral triangle, all angles are 60° → all acute.
- Acute triangle

Final Answers:



Label each triangle:

1. Top-leftRight
2. Top-rightRight
3. Middle-leftAcute
4. Middle-centerObtuse
5. Middle-rightAcute
6. Bottom-leftRight
7. Bottom-centerObtuse
8. Bottom-rightAcute

Summary:



| Triangle | Classification |
|---------|----------------|
| Top-left | Right |
| Top-right | Right |
| Middle-left | Acute |
| Middle-center | Obtuse |
| Middle-right | Acute |
| Bottom-left | Right |
| Bottom-center | Obtuse |
| Bottom-right | Acute |
