From Triangle Inequality Theorem

The sum of any 2 sides of a triangle must be greater than the measure of the third side.

The sum of 2 sides is less than (or equal to) the measure of a third side.

In an isosceles triangle, two sides are equal.

Then we have an option the third side= 8. Let's analyze!

c+a> b - for a and c =8

8+8 > 10

16> 10

The second option is the third side= 10. Let's analyze!

c+a> b - for a and c =10

10+10> 8

20> 8

Answer

A. either 8 or 10
