Answer:

1st option

Explanation:

the figure is a kite

the horizontal diagonal bisects the vertical diagonal , then

x = 5

The diagonals are perpendicular , so using Pythagoras' identity

x² + y² = 13²

5² + y² = 13²

25 + y² = 169 ( subtract 25 from both sides )

y² = 144 ( take square root of both sides )

y =
√(144) = 12
