Yes. Scalene simply means that a triangle's sides are all different lengths. Obtuse means that a triangle has an obtuse angle. Therefore, you can have an obtuse scalene triangle.

YES!!!

To draw a scalene triangle you need a ruler and a pair of pointers(compasses) .

For a scalene triangle of sides 7,8,&n 9.

With the ruler draw a base line of '9' .

With the pointers , open them to '8' using the ruler. Put one point on one end of the base line, and drawe an arc.

With the pointers again, open them to '7' using the ruler. Put one point on the other end of the base line and draw an arc. Where the two arcs intersect is the apex of the triangle.

So with the ruler draw a line from from each corner to the apex . You now have a 7,8,& 9. scalene triangle.

Is scalene triangle cannot contain a right triangle?

A scalene triangle CAN also be a right triangle. For a triangle to be scalene, all 3 sides must be of different lengths. If you draw a triangle with a 90 degree right angle (ie. a right triangle) you will see that it's very easy for the sides to be unequal lenghts.
