Answer:
The third side must be 10: {3, 10, 10}; {10, 3, 3} is not possible.
Step-by-step explanation:
Everything depends on our understanding of "isosceles."
This term indicates that two sides of a given triangle are equal.
If two sides of an isosceles triangle have lengths of 3 and 10, then:
Either 1) Two sides have length 10 and the third side has length 3. This is certainly possible
or
2) sides have length 3 and the third side has length 10. This is NOT possible, since 3 + 3 adds up to 6, which is less than 10.
