scalene
No matching sides
Scalene describes a triangle with three sides of different lengths, and consequently three angles of different measures.
The term distinguishes this irregular form from isosceles triangles (two equal sides) and equilateral triangles (three equal sides).
In anatomy, the scalene muscles are three paired muscles of unequal length in the neck.
