Yes, they can be. For example, if one leg of the triangle is 6 inches and the other leg is 8, then the hypotenuse would be 10 inches long by the pythagorean theorem, I believe. They can not be equilateral. They can, however, be isosceles. I hope that this helps!

no. the triangle can have its right angle and then have two angles the same length. it can be a right iscoceles triangle or a right scalene triangle. but you can never have a right equilateral triangle.

Are all scalene triangles acute triangles?

No, scalene triangles can be obtuse, right or acute triangles. A 3 - 4 -5 right triangle (lengths of the sides) is one example of a right-scalene triangle. In fact, with the exception of the [45°, 45°, 90°] right triangle (which is isosceles) all other right triangles are scalene.

How many right angles in a scalene triangle?

Any triangle can have a maximum of one right angle. Most right triangles are scalene triangles. The only non-scalene right triangle is a 45° - 45° - 90° isosceles right triangle. It is not possible to have an equilateral right triangle in plane geometry. A scalene triangle does not have to have a right angle, but it can have one.
