      Technically you are “right” but you are also being obtuse (pun intended).

      If you could bare to stretch your mind, and realize “not to scale” means “trust the numbers, not the graphic” you could in turn, realize that it is, in fact, 3 sided.

      Every side of every shape is made up of infinite 180 degree angles and 2 angles that are different. Every. Single. One.

      My school used to put a right angled triangle in the test and then say “not to scale” and then the angles would actually make it an isosceles or whatever. I agree with you that scale should keep proportions but yeah for some reason It’s not common knowledge.
