A. What will happen if A become a acute angle? B. How I know that A is obtuse angle? C. What will happen if A become a right angle? Thank for solving this.

a. the opposite angle will also be acute and equal in measure to angle A

b. looks like $90^\circ < \angle{A} < 180^\circ$ in the diagram

c. the rhombus will become a square

If A becomes an acute angle and ABCD remains a parallelogram, B becomes an obtuse angle. (B). You don't know that B is an obtuse angle. If, however, angle A is greater than angle B, angle A must be obtuse. (C). If A becomes a right angle and ABCD remains a parallelogram, ABCD will have become a rectangle as well, and angles B, C and D will also have become right angles.
