An acute triangle was dissected by a straight cut into two pieces which are not necessarily triangles. Then one of the pieces were dissected by a straight cut into two pieces and so on. After a few dissections it turns out the pieces were all triangles. Is it possible they were all obtuse?

The picture below shows the way Juan wants to divide a square field in three regions, so that all three of them share a well at vertex $B$. If the side length of the field is $60$ meters, and each one of the three regions has the same area, how far must the points $M$ and $N$ be from $D$? Note: the area of each region includes the area the well occupies.
