The correct answer is option (B)Yes, such a triangle is obtuse.

Properties of Triangle

Three important points:

  • There is a special property of triangle that states that sum of all the angles in a triangle is 180°.
  • if any angle in a triangle is more than 90°, then such a triangle is obtuse.
  • if any two angles in a triangle are equal, then such a triangle is isosceles.

So here it is stated that one of the angles is 179°, therefore triangle is obtuse.

Now from first point the rest two angles has sum 1°,which does not necessarily mean that they are equal angles, therefore it is not necessarily isosceles triangle.

Therefore from above two conclusions, Option (B) is correct answer.
