Answer

1.24 cm, 1.14 cm, 0.10 cm

Work Step by Step

The upper limit is the measurement + tolerance, that is, $$ 1.19 +0.05=1.24 \ cm .$$ The lower limit is the measurement - tolerance, that is, $$ 1.19 -0.05=1.14 \ cm .$$ The tolerance interval = upper limit-lower limit, that is, $$ 1.24 \ cm-1.14 \ cm= 0.10 cm .$$
