I know that this triangle has 3 acute angles,but I can not find them.

2*area = 31a = 33b = 63c. From this you can find the sides a,b,c. I get
a = 67.68193375, b = 63.57999836, c = 33.30380867. Now use law of cosines to get angles.

its impossible for a triangle to have 3 acute angles.

draw it out and have the 63 as a base and try to balance 31 , 33 on top f 63, ( scalene tiangle )
and simply measure the heigh, that is why the measurement are given to you
things to learn in this is that not everything works by a staright up formula, but formulas are created, and a formula is a simple guide to solving the question.
