Elsa draw an angle that measures 56. Tristan draws a congruent angle. Tristan says his angle is obtuse. Is he correct? Why or why not?

Elsa draw an angle that measures 56 degrees. Tristan draws a congruent angle. Tristan says his angle is obtuse, which is not correct. As Tristan draws a congruent angle of measure 56 degrees and Congruent Angles have the same angle (in degrees or radians).

Since, Elsa draws a acute angle, an angle who measure is less than 90 degree is acute angle. Therefore, Elsa will also draw a acute angle not obtuse angle. As obtuse angles are those angles whose measure if from 90 degrees to 180 degrees. But 53 degree is less than 90 degree.

Therefore, Tristan draws an acute angle.
