Final answer:

Option D). The letter A is made up of 3 line segments and has 2 acute angles. None of the line segments in the letter A are perpendicular or parallel to each other.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct answer is D. 3; 2; Acute; Some; None.

Three line segments—one for the left slant, one for the right slant, and one horizontal line in the center—are required to form the letter A.

The letter A has two angles: an acute angle in the upper left corner and an acute angle in the lower left corner.

Because they are both less than 90 degrees, the angles in the letter A are acute.

The letter A has no line segments that are parallel to one another or perpendicular to one another.
