Answer:

2 acute angles

Explanation:

A right triangle HAS to have a right angle, which is 90 degrees. This means the other two angles must add up to:

180-90 = 90 degrees

Acute angles are LESS than 90 degrees. You cannot add two positive integers over 90 to get 90 (obtuse angles), and you can also not have two 90 degree angles since that forms a straight line, therefore meaning the other two angles must be acute.
