Tommy has made a conjecture about the sum of two Obtuse angles.

' The sum of two obtuse angles cannot be an obtuse angle'

Do you agree with Tommy?

I agree with Tommy because the sum of the smallest obtuse angles (91+91⁰) is 182⁰ which is a reflex angle, not obtuse. The other obtuse angles will be bigger and so will not be obtuse either.
