PMBoK 4th Edition does not
PMBoK 4th Edition does not mention the term triple constraint. It only says project constraints. So for exam just think of triple constraints as project constraints.
Customer Satisfaction is a weird addition in the answer, but its valid since if you try to cut cost and reduce scope it can impact customer satisfaction.
Refer page 6 to 12 of PMBoK
