Answer:

Explanation:

1 . 4,5,10 : this measurement does not form a triangle because the sum of two sides is not greater than the third side (longest side)

4 + 5 > 10

9 > 10 (this is not satisfied)

2. 12,26,20 :this measurement forms a triangle beacuse the sum of two sides is greater than the third side

12 + 26 > 20

38 > 20

3 .

2,3,4 : this measurement does not form a triangle because the sum of two sides is not greater than the third side.

2 + 3 > 5

5 > 5 (this is not satisfied)
