Answer: 11 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

        Let x be the length of one of the other sides. If two are equal, then they both will be 2x.

       Then one side is equal to 14 cm.

       All the sides added together, the perimeter, is equal to 36 cm.

      We will take the numbers we pulled from the problem, create an equation, and solve for x.

36 cm = 14 cm + 2x

22 cm = 2x

11 cm = x

          The length of each of the two other sides is 11 cm.
