Answer:

56°,72°,52°

Explanation:

Acute means angle less than 90°.

An acute triangle is a triangle with all the angles less than 90°.

So we can avoid option B 30°,25°,125° and option D 90°,45°,45°,

Sum of angle in option A

Sum = 59 + 61 + 62 = 182°

So, option A does not represent a triangle.

Sum of angle in option C

Sum = 56 + 72 + 52 = 180°

Here all the angles are less than 90°.

So, the correct answer is 56°,72°,52°.
