Look at the image below. A scalene triangle. There is a dashed line that is perpendicular to the base from the base to the opposite vertex. The dashed line creates two right triangles. An arrow shows the length of the base is labeled 12. The dashed line is labeled 10. The longest side of the right most right triangle is labeled 13. A scalene triangle.
