Answer:

D

Explanation:

Since this triangle is already separated in half, you can use the pythagorean theorem to find the base of each of them and then just add them back together.
\sqrt{√(13)^2-2^2}=√(13-4)=3. Multiplying this by 2, you get a total base value of x=6, or answer choice D. Hope this helps!
