Answer:

No

Explanation:

According to the property of the triangle ,

sum of any two sides should we greater then third side of the triangle.

Here, Measurement of three sides are given as 3,3,5 .

So, sum of the measurement of first two sides is 6.

And third side equals 10.

Clearly 6 is less than 10. So . it violates the property sum of any two sides should we greater then third side of the triangle.
