Answer:

In this case, the side lenghths don't even form a triangle. Since that is not an option, the triangle would be acute.

Step-by-step explanation:

if c^(2 )> a^(2)+b^(2) then the triangle is obtuse.

if c^(2 )< a^(2)+b^(2) then the triangle is acute.

if c^(2 )= a^(2)+b^(2) then the triangle is right

Hope this helps :)
