I already answered this one. I generally don't tell the answer directly, but I give enough information so that you can figure out the answer and learn some mathematics in the process.
In order for there to be any kind of triangle, the sum of the lengths of the two shortest sides must be strictly greater than the longest side. In order to have an isosceles triangle, two of the sides must be equal.
