Answer:

This triangle is an isosceles acute

Explanation:

First lets define each classification

scalene - no equal sides

isosceles - two equal sides

equilateral - all equal sides

acute - all angles have a measure of less than 90 degrees

right - has a right angle (90 degree angle)

obtuse - has an angle that has a measure of more than 90 degrees

Now lets classify

The triangle has two equal sides (indicated by the little line on the top and bottom side) therefore it is an isosceles triangle

We know its an acute triangle because the one angle given is not a right angle nor a obtuse angle meaning that the other two angles are going to have a measure of less than 90 degrees

So we can conclude that this is an isosceles acute triangle
