An isosceles triangle is usually drawn with the two sides of equal length as the legs and the third side as the base.
For a right angled isosceles triangle then the hypotenuse is drawn as the base with the two sides of equal length as the legs joining together at a right angle.
Draw a circle. Draw a horizontal diameter with a second diameter perpendicular to the first.
The hypotenuse is the horizontal diameter. Draw lines from the ends of this diameter to the point where one end of the second diameter meets the circumference. These are the two equal legs of the isosceles triangle. These legs meet at an angle of 90° .

One simple word. YES. Answer 2: A scalene triangle is just one with unequal length sides - the classic 3,4,5 Right Angled Triangle (Pythag) is scalene.
It will be a right angled triangle with angles of 90, 72 and 18 degrees.
All right-angled triangles are scalene with the sole exception of the 90-45-45 shape.
Draw a right angled triangle with legs of lengths 2 and 3 units. The hypotenuse will be sqrt(13) units.

an icoceles triangle or a scalene triangle Actually you would get two right angled triangles. Isosceles triangles have two sides which are equal in length. A scalene triangle has all sides a different length and no right angles.
A protractor
It will be a right angle triangle with a base of 3cm, a height of 4cm and a hypotenuse of 5cm
Draw a line joining the top vertex to the middle of the base. This divides the triangle into two right-angled triangles, which are congruent (both have the same side lengths and angles). Each right-angled triangle has a hypotenuse length of 34 cm (the hypotenuse is the side opposite the right angle). They also have a side which is the height of the triangle, 30 cm. By Pythagoras' theorem, the third side of each right-angled triangle is 16 cm long because 342 - 302 = 1156 - 900 = 256 = 162 The base of the isosceles triangle is twice that, so it's 32 cm long.
