Two sides of a scalene trangle measure 5cm and 7cm Which of these measurements could the third side be 5cm 7cm or 10cm?

must be 10 because scalene means can't be same as any other side, so can't be 5 or 7. Check: is 10 less than 5 + 7? It needs to be or you can't make a triangle. And it is, so your scalene triangle has sides of 5, 7, and 10.

Could this trangle be a right triangle?
Only if it has a right angle and 2 acute angles
What does depth mean in measurements?
It is usually a linear measure in the vertical direction, measured downwards. If measured upwards, the same measure could be called a height.
Is 4.5 and 4.25 the same measurement?
No, they are different numbers that could make all the difference in your measurements. Measure exactly!
How do you you find the measure of a angle?
That's a very unspecific question. Is it just an angle? Is it part of a polygon? Are the measurements specified? You could measure it with a protractor if that's what you're asking.
What is a scalen triangle?
a triangle that has a right angle and the other two angles are diffrent ex: angles= #1. 90 degrees/#2. 35 degrees/#3. 55 degrees

How could you collect measurements to show how rain can change?
You could put a bottle outside with lines on it and measure the rain fall each day.

What object looks like a scalene triangle?
If a sail is pulled back, it could look like a scalene triangle.

Is an scalene triangle an obtuse or an right triangle?
A scalene has three sides of unequal lengths, and all threes angles different.The largest angle defines the triangle¹:acute: a scalene triangle could have sides 6, 9, 10right angle: a scalene triangle could have sides 6, 8, 10obtuse: a scalene triangle could have sides 6, 7, 10So a scalene triangle could be any of acute, right angle or obtuse.¹In terms of acute, right angle or obtuse. Triangles can also be defined in terms of their sides: equilateral (all three sides equal), isosceles (two sides equals) or scalene (no sides equal)
An instrument used to measure length width and height?
A ruler is an example of an instrument that can be used to measure relatively small linear distances, though it could not measure all three at once.
Is it true that No scalene triangles are similar?
Oh, no, that isn't true. We could have a scalene triangle with sides of, say, 2 cm, 3 cm, and 4 cm. Then we could have another scalene triangle with sides of 4 cm, 6 cm, and 8 cm. These two triangles would be similar because they have a ratio of 1:2, despite the fact that they are scalene. The term 'scalene' has nothing to do with similarity; it just means that a triangle has no equal sides.

A scalene triangle with whole number side lengths and a perimeter of 15 inches.?
The dimensions of the scalene triangle could be 7 by 5 by 3 inches
Does a scalene triangle have 2 obtuse angles also?
It's impossible for a triangle to have 2 obtuse angles. A scalene triangle in one that has no equal angles or sides. It could have 1 obtuse angle or it could have 0.
