Prove that in any triangle $ABC$, $\cos^2A+\cos^2B+\cos^2C\geq\frac{3}{4}$ I have two similar looking questions.

(1) Prove that in triangle $ABC$, $$\cos^2A+\cos^2B+\cos^2C\geq\frac{3}{4}.$$
(2) If $\Delta ABC$ is an acute angled, then prove that
$$\cos^2A+\cos^2B+\cos^2C<\frac{3}{2}$$

If I apply Jensen's inequality, then $\cos^2x$ is a concave function, because its second derivative is $-2\cos 2x$ and with it being concave function
$$\cos^2A+\cos^2B+\cos^2C\leq\frac{3}{4}$$ which is not there in the question.How will we prove both of these questions. I have some intuition that in the second question, as $ABC$ is an acute angled triangle,this has something to do.
Please guide me in the right direction. Thank you.

Multiplying by $4R^2$ and exploiting the sine theorem we get:
$$ 4R^2\sum_{cyc}\cos^2 A = 12R^2-(a^2+b^2+c^2)$$
hence the first inequality is equivalent to the trivial $OH^2\geq 0$, where $O$ is the circumcenter and $H$ is the orthocenter. On the other hand, if $ABC$ is an acute-angled triangle we have that $H$ lies inside $ABC$, hence $OH^2< R^2$ and the second inequality follows.
