A scalene specifies that no two sides and no two angles are equal. A right triangle has one side that is a right or 90 degree angle. A scalene triangle can be a right triangle {a 3-4-5 right triangle or a 30°-60°-90° right triangle, for example}. A scalene triangle can also be an acute or obtuse triangle.
Note this: there is only one case of a right triangle, which is non-scalene. This is the isosceles right triangle with angles 45°, 45° & 90°, and sides sqrt(2), 1 & 1. All other right triangles are scalene.
The terms scalene, isosceles, and equilateral refer to how the side lengths are related to each other. The terms right, acute and obtuse refer to angles, specifically the largest angle: obtuse - the largest angle is greater than 90°; right - the largest angle equals 90°; acute - the largest angle is less than 90°. The terms referring to angles are not necessarily mutually exclusive with the terms, which refer to side lengths (except for equilateral).
So you can have an isosceles obtuse (a shallow pitched roof), or isosceles right (example above), or isosceles acute (a very steep pitched roof).
What else can I help you with?
How are a right triangle and a scalene triangle different?
They need not be. You can have a right scalene triangle.
What is a triangle where the sides are different lengths?
A right triangle * * * * * No, it is a scalene triangle.
Does scalene have a right angle?
A Scalene triangle does not have a right angle because the triangle is all different angles so...
What is right angled scalene triangle?
A scalene triangle has 3 different sides and 3 different angles that add up to 180 degrees but normally a right angle triangle is different to a scalene triangle because it has its own special properties.
Scalene right triangle?
A scalene triangle has three sides of different lengths. A right triangle can be scalene - for instance the '3-4-5' triangle has a right angle opposite the side which is 5 units long.
Right triangle cannot be scalene is it true or false?
A scalene triangle is one that has three lengths of different sizes. It is quite possible for a right triangle to have three sides of different length.
Is a scalene triangle sometimes a right triangle?
no its not the scalene triangle will never be a right triangle
Is a right triangle sometimes a scalene triangle?
no its not the scalene triangle will never be a right triangle
Is a scalene triangle is a right triangle?
A scalene triangle is one where all the angles are different and all the lengths of the sides are different. A standard 3, 4, 5 triangle does fit the definition of a scalene triangle, but we would alway refer to it in the more specific case, in this case a right angled 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.
What are the four different of triangles?
isoceles Triangle, Scalene triangle, Equilateral Triangle and Right Triangle.
What does a right scalene looklike?
NO such thing as a right scalene triangle. Triangles are classed as : - Equilateral ; the three angles are the same at 60 degrees. Isosceles ; two angles an]re the same and two sides are the same length. Right-Angled ; one angle is a right angle. Scalene ; the three angles are all different and the three sides are all different lengths.
