Which premitive unit cell has unequual edge lengths (anebnec) and all axial angles different from 90^(@) ?

The regular three dimensional arrangement of points in a crystal is known as crystal lattice and the smallest repeating pattern in the lattice is called unit cell. The unit cells are characterised by the edge lengths a, b, c and the angles between them alpha, beta and gamma respectively. Based on this, there are seven crystal systems. In a cubic unit cell: a=b=c and alpha = beta=gamma=90^(@) The number of points in simple, body centred and face centred cubic cells are 1,2 and 4 respectively In both the hcp and ccp of spheres, the number of tetrahedral voids per sphere is two while the octahedral voids is one. In a face centred cubic cell, an atom at the face contributes to the unit cell

The unit cell with parameters alpha=beta=gamma=90^(@) and a=b!=c is :-
