Answer:

BD = 12 :)

Explanation:

Alright, we'll need the Pythagorean theorem for this!

So, the length of AC is 10. That means the lengths of AD and DC are both half of that, which is 5 :)

DC = 5

We already know that BC = 13, so we can plug in these values into the pythagorean theorem for the right triangle BDC:

BD^2 + DC^2 = BC^2

BD^2 + 5^2 = 13^2

BD^2 + 25 = 169

BD^2 = 169 - 25 = 144

BD = √144 = 12 :)
