    You didn't provide more information regarding triangle but from given options, it seems that triangle has ratio from shortest side to longest side would be 5 : 12 : 13

    So 13 would be hypotenuse since it is longest.

    Now A cannot be right angle because tangent is not defined at 90°.

    Also tan (A) would be ratio of opponent side to adjacent side (think SOH CAH TOA)

    So either opposite side would be 5 or 12, and adjacent side would be 12 or 5 respectively.

    So the answer is either 5 / 12 or 12 / 5 but only option provided is 12/5 so that would be your answer.

    Final answer: 12 / 5
