Solution

The correct option is D Right angled
Let $∠ A = x$
$\Rightarrow ∠ C = 3 x$ and $∠ B = 2 x$
Using angle sum property of triangle
$x + 2 x + 3 x = 180^{\circ} \Rightarrow 6 x = 180^{\circ} \Rightarrow x = 30^{\circ}$
So the angles are
$∠ A = x = 30^{\circ} ∠ B = 2 x = 2 \times 30^{\circ} = 60^{\circ} ∠ C = 3 x = 3 \times 30^{\circ} = 90^{\circ}$
One of the angle is right angle . So the triangle is right triangle.
