Answer:

D.27

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because,

According to Triangle Inequality Property:

Measurement of any two sides of a triangle is always greater than the third side.

Here,

10 + 16 = 26 > 21

10 + 16 = 26 > 22

10 + 16 = 26 > 22

But,

10 + 16 = 26 < 27

Hence,

Option D: 27 can't be the measurement of the triangle.
