Answer:</h2>
<em><u>The truck cannot pass safely under the bridge. The truck is 13 inches taller than the maximum height.</u></em>
<h2>
Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
In the question,
The maximum height of the vehicle which is capable of passing under the bridge is 12 feet and 5 inches.
So,
Now we know that,
1 feet = 12 inches
So,
12 feet = 12 x 12 = 144 inches
So,
Total height of the vehicle which is permissible to pass under the bridge is,
12 feet 5 inches = 144 + 5 = 149 inches
Also,
Height of the truck = 162 inches
Therefore, we can see that the permissible height is smaller than the height of the vehicle.
Height of vehicle which is more than permissible height is by,
162 - 149 = 13 inches
<em><u>Therefore, the truck cannot pass safely under the bridge. The truck is 13 inches taller than the maximum height.</u></em>
