Answer:

a. 5,12,13

Step-by-step explanation:

we know in right angle triangle

AC^2 = AB^2 + BC^2

here let

AC = 13

AB = 5

BC = 12

So,

13 ^2 = 5^2+ 12^2

169 = 25 + 144

169 = 169

so,

sides of right angle triangle are 5,12,13

and only the largest value in given data can be AC as AC is hypotenuse
