Given that the length of one side of an isosceles triangle is equal to 5 and the length of the other side is equal to 11, find the perimeter of the isosceles triangle

Given that the length of one side of an isosceles triangle is equal to 5 and the length of the other side is equal to 11, find the perimeter of the isosceles triangle

When 5 is the bottom and the waist length is 11, the circumference of the isosceles triangle is 5 + 11 + 11 = 27; when 11 is the bottom, the waist length is 5, ∵ 5 + 5 < 11, ∵ 5, 5, 11 can not form a triangle
