Answer:

The perimeter of triangle is 30ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

First you have to find the value of a using Pythogoras Theorem, a² + b² = c² where a and b is the sides and c is the hypotenuse :

[tex] {a}^{2} + {b}^{2} = {c}^{2} [/tex]

[tex] {a}^{2} = {c}^{2} - {b}^{2} [/tex]

[tex]a = \sqrt{ {c}^{2} - {b}^{2} } [/tex]

Let b = 12,

Let c = 13,

[tex]a = \sqrt{ {13}^{2} - 12 {?}^{2} } [/tex]

[tex]a = \sqrt{25} [/tex]

[tex]a = 5feet[/tex]

Next you have to find the perimeter of triangle by adding all the sides together :

[tex]perimeter = 5 + 12 + 13[/tex]

[tex]perimeter = 30feet[/tex]
