Answer:

Triangle 1: Isosceles obtuse

Triangle 2: Right scalene

Explanation:

Isosceles triangles have two congruent sides and two congruent angles. Triangle one fits this description because the double markers on sides AC and AB indicate that the two sides are congruent.

Obtuse triangles have an angle that is larger than 90 degrees. Triangle one fits this description as indicated by angle A. If it were a right angle, it would have a square symbol (as shown in triangle 2). The other two angles are obviously smaller, and they would be acute angles.

Right triangles have an angle that is exactly 90 degrees. Right triangles will have a square to indicate that it has this measurement.

Scalene triangles have three different measurements for its sides and its angles.
