scalene triangle
Three mismatched edges
A scalene triangle is a triangle with three sides of different lengths, and consequently three angles of different measures.
It contrasts with isosceles triangles (two equal sides) and equilateral triangles (three equal sides).
The roof's gable formed a scalene triangle.
