Answer:

15 cm, 15 cm, and 19 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Isosceles Triangle is a type of triangle in which two of the three sides are equal in length. The perimeter is 49 cm. Therefore, in this question, since the sides are unknown, we can assume that:

Length of the longer side = x cm.

Length of the other sides = y cm.

The relationship between x and y is given by:

x = (2y - 11) cm (because it is mentioned that the longest side is 11 cm less than twice as long as the other sides).

Perimeter of a triangle = sum of all sides.

Since its an isosceles triangle, therefore:

Perimeter of the triangle = x + 2y.

Substituting the values in the perimeter formula gives:

Perimeter of the triangle = 2y - 11 + 2y.

49 = 4y - 11.

4y = 60.

y = 15 cm.

Substituting y = 15 in the equation x = 2y - 11 gives x = 2(15) - 11 = 19 cm.

So in the ascending order, the lengths are 15 cm, 15 cm, and 19 cm!!!
