Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we will draw a median from point A to base BC
now since a median bisects the base
therefore the base is divided into two parts of 5cm each
now it's any one of the triangle by applying Pythagoras theorem you will get (12)^2+(5)^2 which is equal to 169 and the root of it is 13
This the two sides are 13 CM each
