Answer

  1. Two obtuse angles (each > 90°): sum > 180° — possible.

  2. Two right angles: 90° + 90° = 180° (not greater than 180°) — not possible.

  3. Obtuse (e.g., 120°) + acute (e.g., 70°) = 190° > 180° — possible.

  4. Reflex angle (> 180°) + acute angle: sum > 180° always — possible.

Hence, option 2 is the correct option.
