Explanation:

The correct shape would be a scalene triangle, which can't be bent and twisted and still have the same side lengths.

Answer: One triangle

Explanation:

-The triangle's dimensions are defined and fixed.

-Given the fixed dimensions, only one unique triangle can be constructed.

-Hence, only one triangle of the dimensions 7.2cm, 6.9cm and 12.8 cm can be formed.
