Solution

(i)As we know that a right angle is equal to 90 so two right angles sum up to 90+90=180 but a triangle consists of three angles that sum up to 180. Also, on other hand, no angle of a triangle can be 0 so we can not have a triangle with two right angles.

(ii)As we know that an obtuse angle is grater than 90 and smaller than 180 so two obtuse angles sum more than 180 (such that 91+91=182). but a triangle consists of three angles that sum up to 180. So we can not have a triangle with two obtuse angles.

Hence, this is the answer.
