What is the length (in cm) of the smallest altitude of the triangle whose sides are 5 cm, 12 cm and 13 cm? (correct to one decimal place)

12.0 5.1 2.6 4.6

4.6

Sides of the triangle = 5cm, 12cm and 13 cm We have a concept , BO = \(\frac{(AB × BC)}{ AC }\)  = BO =  \(\frac{(5 × 12)}{ 13 }\) = 4.6 cm
