उत्तर

13 m

Explanation;

Hint:

AC2 = AE2 + EC.....(Distance between the two tops)

= 52 + 122

= 25 + 144

= 169

AC = `sqrt(169)` = 13 cm

In ∆LMN, l = 5, m = 13, n = 12 then complete the activity to show that whether the given triangle is right angled triangle or not.
*(l, m, n are opposite sides of ∠L, ∠M, ∠N respectively)

Activity: In ∆LMN, l = 5, m = 13, n = `square`

∴ l2 = `square`, m2 = 169, n2 = 144.

∴ l2 + n2 = 25 + 144 = `square`

∴ `square` + l2 = m2

∴By Converse of Pythagoras theorem, ∆LMN is right angled triangle.
