Answer:
In the picture attached, the question is shown.
a) Applying Pythagorean theorem to triangle ABC, and solving for AC:
CB² + BA² = AC²
5² + 12² = AC²
√169 = AC
13 cm = AC
b) Applying Pythagorean theorem to triangle ACD, and solving for AD:
CD² + AC² = AD²
5² + 13² = AD²
√194 = AD
13.9 cm = AD
