Options:
A .  Fig 1 and Fig 3 only
B .  Fig 2 and Fig 3 only
C .  Fig 1, Fig 2 and Fig 4 only
D .  Fig 1, Fig 2 and Fig 3 only
Answer: Option A
:
A
An obtuse angled triangle is the triangle in which one of the angles is greater than 90.
An isosceles triangle is the triangle in which two sides are equal.
1. Fig1:
ΔPQR is isosceles [PQ=PR]
Q=R
[ angles opposite to equal sides of a triangle are equal]
P+Q+R=180
[angle sum property of a triangle]
P+25+25=180
P=18050=130
ΔPQRis an obtuse angled triangle as one of the angles measures 130°.
2. Fig 2:
ΔABCis isosceles[AB=AC]
Similarly as above,we can find the angles of this triangle.
A=35,B=C=72.5
Since all angles are less than 90, ΔABC is an acute angledtriangle.
3. Fig3:
ΔXYZis an isosceles as well as an obtuse angled triangle as angleY measures 110°.
4. Fig4:
ΔMNOis an isosceles as well as a right angled triangle.
Hence, only Fig1and Fig3are isosceles as well as obtuse angledtriangles.
