- they are two dimensional shapes
- they are triangles
- they have three sides
- their interior angles add up to 180 degrees
- their exterior angles add up to 360 degrees
- they have at least two sides of different lengths
Right triangle: three sided two dimensional shape with one right angle
Scalene triangle: three sided two dimensional shape with three sides of different lenghts
Being Scalene and being Right are not mutually exclusive. A Scalene triangle can also be a Right triangle, and vice versa.

Is a right triangle sometimes a scalene triangle?
no its not the scalene triangle will never be a right triangle
Can you sketch a right scalene triangle?
No because a scalene triangle has no right angles
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° - 45° - 90° 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.
Is a right triangle an equilateral scalene or isosceles triangle?
It can be scalene or isosceles but not equilateral.
