The Length of the third side of a triangle shouldn't be greater than the some of other two sides,

So, let the side be x

[tex]\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: x < 32 + 10[/tex]

[tex]\qquad \sf  \dashrightarrow \: x < 42[/tex]

And hence, the third side should be less than 42 cm, therefore the only option that doesn't satisfy the condition is option D

Therefore, 44 cm can't be a side of that Triangle.
