Answer:

5

Step-by-step explanation:

a=12 (height)

c=13 (hypotenous)

b=? (base)

By using Pythagoras theorm

We have, hypotenous sq=base sq+height sq

Let b =base SO, base sq=hypotenous Sq-height Sq

=>base Sq =13sq-12sq

Base Sq =169-144

Base Sq =25

Base =5 (shifting the sq)....

Hope it's helpful
