def triangle_area(a, b, c):
'''
Given the lengths of the three sides of a triangle. Return the area of
the triangle rounded to 2 decimal points if the three sides form a valid triangle.
Otherwise return -1
Three sides make a valid triangle when the sum of any two sides is greater
than the third side.
Example:
triangle_area(3, 4, 5) == 6.00
triangle_area(1, 2, 10) == -1
'''
if a + b <= c or a + c <= b or b + c <= a:
return -1
s = (a + b + c) / 2
area = (s * (s - a) * (s - b) * (s - c)) ** 0.5
return round(area, 2)
