Yes it can be. There are more than just right triangles but all right triangles are scalene
Since the buses travel in opposite directions, the speed at which they distance themselves is the sum of their speeds.
One bus travels at speed s.
The other bus travels at speed s + 15.
The sum of the speeds is s + s + 15 = 2s + 15
speed = distance/time
distance = speed * time
366 = (2s + 15) * 2
183 = 2s + 15
168 = 2s
s = 84
The slower bus travels at 84 km/h.
s + 15 = 84 + 15 = 99
The faster bus travels at 99 km/h.
Check:
In 2 hours, the slower bus travels 2 * 84 km = 168 km
In 2 hours, the faster bus travels 2 * 99 km = 198 km
In 2 hours, the buses are 198 km + 168 km = 366 km apart.
Our answer is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
140° and 50°
Step-by-step explanation:
The supplement of the angle (180 - x)
The complement of the angle = (90 - x)
(180 -x) = 4(90-x) - 60
180 - x = 360 -4x - 60
180 -x = 300 - 4x
180 - x + 4x = 300
180 + 3x = 300
3x = 120
x = 40
The supplement (180 - x) = 180 - 40 = 140°
The complement (90 - x) = 90 - 40 = 50°
This is the concept of algebra, to get the slope of the line we need to rewrite the equation in slope intercept form y=mx+c, where m=slope, c=y-intercept.
Therefore re-writing our expression in slope-intercept form we get:
7x-3y=10
-3y=-7x+10
y=7/3x-10/3
The slope=7/3
hence we conclude that the slope of the line perpendicular to this is -3/7
