Detailed Solution

We are given that the sides of a triangle are 13, 12 and 5 cm.
Now, by using the formula, R= abc (a+b+c)(b+ca)(c+ab)(a+bc)  we have
R= 13×12×5 (13+12+5)(12+513)(5+1312)(13+125) R= 780 (30)(4)(6)(20)  
Multiplying the terms, we get
R= 780 600×4×6  
Rewriting the terms, we get
R= 780 6×100×6×4  
R= 780 10×6×2 R= 780 120 R=6  
Therefore, the circumradius of a triangle whose sides are 13, 12 and 5 cm, is 6.
