Answer:

There can be only 1 right angle(90°) so answer A

Explanation:

If a triangle is equal to 180 °

And each right angle is equal to 90°

Then there can be 2 or 3 becouse if it was 2 it would be a full 180° but we still need 1 more corner and if it would be 3 right angles then it would be 270 with is way farther then the capability of a triangle.

Answer:

A) 1

Explanation:

a triangle has 180° and a right angle has 90°

triangles have 3 angles

2 right angles would make up 180° therefore, it can only contain 1 right angle
