Answer:

B. obtuse triangle

Explanation:

Obtuse triangles are triangles with one obtuse angle and two acute angles. Define obtuse angles as angles over 90 degrees and acute angles as angles less than 90 degrees.

In this triangle:

118 degrees - obtuse angle

19 degrees - acute angle

43 degrees - acute angle

Thus, this triangle is an obtuse triangle.
