Answer:
Option B. x = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we shall give a separate diagram which will help us to further understand the question.
Please see attached photo for further details.
To find the value of x we shall use the pythagoras theory as illustrated below:
x is the longest side Therefore,
x² = 12² + 5²
x² = 144 + 25
x² = 169
Take the square root of both side
x = √169
x = 13
Therefore, the value of x 13.
