to test for a triangle, the two smallest sides added together have to be greater than the third side.

3.95 + 4.56 > 8.65
8.51 > 8.65 
this is false

4.56 + 8.65 > 10.31
13.21 > 10.31
could be it

4.56 + 8.65 > 13.21
13.21 > 13.21
no, this would mean they're equal

4.56 + 8.65 > 20.25
13.21 > 20.25
this is also false

B. 10.31 cm
