Determine if the statement is always, sometimes, or never true:

an equilateral triangle is an acute triangle.

a. always
b. sometimes
c. never

a scalene triangle is a right triangle.

a. always
b. sometimes
c. never

An equilateral triangle is an acute triangle.

The correct answer should be option A. An equilateral triangle is always an acute triangle since the sum of the angles should be 180 degrees which when divided by 3 would equate to 60°.

A scalene triangle is a right triangle.

The correct answer would be option B. A scalene triangle is sometimes a right triangle. What is important is that the sides of the triangle are unequal.
