Answer:

No

Explanation:

A scalene triangle is a triangle that has all sides of different lengths, and an obtuse triangle is one that has one angle measuring more than 90 degrees. These characteristics are not mutually exclusive, so a triangle could potentially be both scalene and obtuse.

I don't think so because they're different things!
