The sides that form the right angle are called legs. The side opposite the right angle is called the hypotenuse.

What is a triangle with unequal sides?
If no two sides of a triangle have the same length, then the figure is called a "scalene" triangle. Some (but not all) scalene triangles are also right triangles.
What is the difference between an isosceles triangle and a right triangle?
In an isosceles triangle, two sides are of equal length. An isosceles triangle also has two congruent angles. An equilateral triangle is an isosceles triangle, but not all isosceles triangles are equilateral triangles. __________ A right triangle (or right-angled triangle, formerly called a rectangled triangle) has one 90° internal angle (a right angle). The side opposite to the right angle is the hypotenuse; it is the longest side in the right triangle. An isoceles triangle has TWO sides of equal length but and equilateral triangle has THREE sides of equal length.
A triangle with all sides congruent is called?
An Equalateral Triangleequalateral triangle it also has congruent anglesEquilateral triangleA triangle with all the sides congruent is called an equilateral triangle.
Does an isosceles triangle have a right angle?
An isosceles triangle has two equal sides and two equal angles. A right triangle is any triangle with one angle that is a right angle. A right triangle could also be an isosceles triangle, but an isosceles triangle will not always have a right angle.
Triangle has 2 sides the same length?
Triangle has 3 sides Also, scalene

What are the parts of a right angled triangle?
A triangle has three sides. The two sides that are perpendicular are called legs and the diagonal side is called the hypotenuse. Whichever side is horizontal (usually one of the legs) is also called the base.
How can a triangle with a right angle also be isosceles triangle?
An isoscles triangle is a triangle which has two of its sides equal in length. Yes, absolutely a right triangle can also be an isoscles triangle.

What is an isoscles triangle?
A triangle with two angles of the same degree and the this one at a different degree.
How does an isosceles triangle that is also a right triangle look like?
That's called a 45° right triangle. The length of the hypotenuse is equal to the length of each of the other two sides times the square root of two.
What is a triangle that has two equal sides and the angles opposite the equal sides are also equal?
That is what is called an equilateral triangle.
Do scalene triangles have three different angles?
Yes. A scalene triangle is, by definition, a triangle with all sides and angles different. An equilateral triangle has all sides and angles the same, an isosceles triangle has 2 sides and 2 angles equal, and a right triangle has a right angle, but it is also possible for an isosceles triangle to be a right triangle.
What triangle has one right angle and two sides the same length?
An isoceles triangle has two angles that are the same length with the third being different. It can be a right angle or another angle. or it's also called a Right Isosceles triangle.
What is a triangle with 3 equal sides?
A triangle with 3 equal sides also must have three equal angles; this is called an equilateral triangle.
Is scalene triangle cannot contain a right triangle?
A scalene triangle CAN also be a right triangle. For a triangle to be scalene, all 3 sides must be of different lengths. If you draw a triangle with a 90 degree right angle (ie. a right triangle) you will see that it's very easy for the sides to be unequal lenghts.
