You are solving for the height. Use the formula:
c² - b² = a² in which c = hypotenuse
(13)² - (5)² = a²
Simplify
169 - 25 = a²
144 = a²
Isolate the a. Root both sides
√144 = √a²
a = √144
a = √(12 x 12)
a = 12
C) 12 feet is your answer

Answer:
Option C is correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of 1 side of the divider is approximately 8 x 3 = 24 < 25

It is the same as commutative, just flipping the position of the numbers. For multiplication, it is the same. 3x2=2x3. But with division, you are dividing the second number from the first, so it matters what number is first and can affect it heavily.
