I do not think so. Scalne has 3 sides of equal length. You need 90 degrees to form a right angle and trinagles are 180 degrees with three sides. so the answer is NO.

  • Actually a scalene triangle has no congruent sides. An equilateral triangle is the triangle which has three sides of equal length. Therefore, it is logical that a right triangle can also be scalene.

That is tru.:D

a right triangle can be scalene because a scalene is a triangle that has no sides of equal length. :D

im so smart. >.<

A scalene triangle is simply one which has no two sides equal to each other, or no two angles that are equal to each other. It's very possible that a right triangle could be a scalene triangle (or vice versa). For example, a 30-60-90 special triangle has sides that are related by the ratios 1, sqrt(3) and 2. This is clearly a scalene triangle. Not all right triangles are scalene, a 45-45-90 right triangle is not scalene since it has two angles equal to each other.

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&deg; - 45&deg; - 90&deg; 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.

Does a salene have a right angle?

If you meant scalene triangle, then it may have a right angle. By definition, a scalene triangle is a triangle with no angle or side measures that are the same. For example, a 30,60,90 triangle is scalene.

Sometimes an isosceles triangle but never a scalene triangle with 3 interior acute angles.


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.
