C, 22 meters.

The rule is that the two smallest sides need to add up to be greater than the largest side.


2 meters + 10 meters is smaller than 14, so it doesn’t work
4 meters + 10 meters is only equal to 14, so it doesn’t work either
10 meters + 14 meters IS greater than 22, so it does work
10 meters + 14 meters is equal to 24, so it doesn’t work.
Answer: 22 meters

Explanation: You need a bigger side if you have two smaller sides.
