Answer: True

Step-by-step explanation:

A right triangle has exactly one angle that is 90 degrees. This is called a right angle.

The other two angles are acute, which means they are less than 90 degrees. An example would be 30 degrees and 60 degrees.

If 30 degrees is an interior acute angle, then 180-30 = 150 degrees is the exterior obtuse angle. Similarly, the adjacent angle to the 60 is 180-60 = 120 degrees.

This example shows we have two obtuse exterior angles. This applies to any right triangle, and not just this particular one.
