Answer 1

Option B

Explanation:

By applying Pythagoras theorem in the given right triangle,

(Hypotenuse)² = (leg 1)² + (leg 2)²

Now substitute the measures of each side in the formula,

(13)² = x² + (12)²

169 = x² + 144

x² = 169 - 144

x² = 25

x = √25

x = 5

Therefore, Option B will be the correct option.
