Answer: D

Explanation:

Explanation:

The side measures of choices A and C do not form a triangle of any sort.

The angle measures of choice B mean the remaining angle is ...

180° -110° -35° = 35°

Two of the angles are the same measure, so the triangle will be isosceles, not scalene. No scalene triangle can be formed with those angle measures.

__

The angle measures of choice D mean the remaining angle is ...

180° -20° -80° = 80°

Two of the angles are the same measure, so an isosceles triangle can be formed as described in choice D.
