Best Answer

1 It's a two dimensional 3 sided polygon of different lengths

2 Its smallest sides added together are greater than its longest side

3 Its interior angles are labeled A, B, C

4 Its sides are labeled a, b, c which are opposite angles A, B, C respectively

5 It has 3 acute angles of different sizes that add up to 180 degrees

6 It has 3 exterior angles that add up to 360 degrees

7 It has no diagonals

8 It has no perpendicular or parallel lines

9 It will tessellate

10 It has no lines of symmetry

11 It has no order of rotational symmetry

12 It has a perimeter which is the sum of its 3 sides

13 It has an area which is: 0.5*base*altitude

14 Its area is also: 0.5*a*b*sinC

15 Its cosine rule: a/sinA = b/sinB = c/sinC

16 Its cosine rule: a^2 = b^2+c^2 -2bc*cosA

17 It has 3 vertices which is the plural of vertex

18 It can be doubled up into a 4 sided quadrilateral

19 It can form the unified cross-section of a prism

20 It's easily constructed with a straight edge and a protractor

21 Its properties were known by the ancient Greeks and Egyptians

22 Its best friends are the right angle, obtuse, isosceles and equilateral triangles because they have so much in common

What is a triangle with no equal sides and no equal angles?

A triangle with no equal sides and no equal angles is called a scalene triangle. In contrast, a triangle with equal sides and equal angles is called an equilateral triangle. A triangle with two equal sides and two equal angles is an isosceles triangle.


Can an scalene triangle have an acute angle?

Yes at least 2


What is a triangle with no congrent sides?

That is a scalene triangle. An isosceles triangle has at least 2 congruent sides and an equilateral triangle has 3 congruent sides.


What is has no lines of symmetry and at least one right angle?

A right scalene triangle


What polygon has at least one pair of sides or angles that is not congruent?

That would have to be a scalene triangle.


You are a polygon you have the least amount of sides a polygon can have All of your angles are different What shape are you?

A scalene triangle


A triangle with at least two equal sides?

That is an isosceles All equal sides is called an equilateral triangle 2 equal sides is an isosceles No equal sides is a scalene triangle


What is the measure of an scalene triangle?

There are at least 8 different "measures" that we can think of for any triangle: three sides, three angles, a perimeter, and an area. We can't guess which one you're looking for. A 'scalene' triangle is simply any triangle in which no two sides are the same length. That fact doesn't help us.


What triangle is formed with three sides of different lengths?

A scalene triangle. In a scalene triangle, there are no congruent sides or angles. In an isosceles triangle, at least two congruent sides and angles. In an equilateral triangle, all three sides and angles are congruent, with angles that always measure sixty degrees. Note: an equilateral triangle also classifies as an isosceles triangle, as it meets the definition of an isosceles triangle mentioned above.


What is the triangle that has the lengths of at least two sides?

An EQUILATERAL triangle has all three sides the same length. An ISOSCELES triangle has two sides with the same length. A SCALENE triangle has all three sides different lengths.


What does a right triangle and a scalene triangle have in common?

they are two dimensional shapesthey are trianglesthey have three sidestheir interior angles add up to 180 degreestheir exterior angles add up to 360 degreesthey have at least two sides of different lengthsRight triangle: three sided two dimensional shape with one right angleScalene triangle: three sided two dimensional shape with three sides of different lenghtsBeing Scalene and being Right are not mutually exclusive. A Scalene triangle can also be a Right triangle, and vice versa.
