Answer:

Both of the triangles are similar but they look like they have been rotated a bit.  Sides x is similar to 12 and side 5 (the hypotenuse) is similar to 13.  Therefore we can just set up an equation and cross-multiply.

[tex]\frac{x}{5} = \frac{12}{13}[/tex]

[tex](x * 13) = (5 * 12)[/tex]

[tex]13x = 60[/tex]

Divide 12 from both sides

[tex]13x/13 = 60/13[/tex]

[tex]x=4.615[/tex]

Best option would be Option E, 4.62
