Solution

The correct option is B
False

For a geometrical figure to be called a triangle, the sum of any two sides must be greater than the third side. So, in the above question the given side lengths are 3cm, 4cm, and 10cm. We can clearly see that the sum of 3cm and 4cm is not greater than the third side i.e. 10 cm. So, the given side lengths cannot form a triangle.
