Answer: scalene triangle

Explanation:

Triangles are classified into three types on the basis of its sides.

  • Equilateral triangle = If all sides of a triangle are equal then it is known as equilateral triangle.
  • Isosceles triangle = If any two sides of a triangle are equal then it is known as isosceles triangle.
  • Scalene triangle = If none of the sides of a triangle are equal then it is known as scalene triangle.

Given : A triangle has side lengths of 35 cm, 46 cm, and 68 cm.

Sine all its side-lengths are distinct , therefore it must be a scalene triangle ( By definition).

Hence, the right answer is scalene triangle.
