Answer:
13cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the triangle is a right-angled triangle we can use the Pythagoras theorem as,
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
5^2 + 12^2 = c^2
25 + 144 = c^2
169 = c^2
c = [tex]\sqrt{169}[/tex]
c = 13
13 cm
[tex]a^{2} +b^{2} =c^{2}[/tex]
[tex]5^{2} +12^{2} =c^{2}[/tex]
[tex]25 + 144 = c^{2}[/tex]
[tex]169 = c^{2}[/tex]
[tex]\sqrt{169} = c[/tex]
[tex]13 = c[/tex]
