Tsa is 360.. base is right triangle.. area of that triangle will be (1/2)*5*12=30.. there will be 2 triangles one on top and on on bottom.. total is 60.. subtract it.. area left is 360-60=300.. now there will be three sides as base is a triangle.. nd there will be three rectangles on the sides.. with one side as 5,12,13.. and same height.. suppose height is H.. so area of rectangles are 5H+12H+13H=300.. so 30H=300.. H=10
