Answer:

12

Step-by-step explanation:

Since this is a right triangle you can you pythagorean theorem.

a^2+b^2=c^2

A= shortest side.

B=middle side.

C=longest/slanted side or hypotenuse.

So AB is the hypotenuse.

BC is the short side.

this means that AC is the middle side. Plug your numbers in.

25 + b^2 =169

b^2=144

b=12

AC=12
