Answer:

13m

Explanation:

North and East are perpendicular so if you illustrate this it will be a right-angle triangle;

One side will be 12 and the another will be 5;

The hypotenuse will be the desired distance;

We can use pythagoras to calculate it:

5² + 12² = x²

25 + 144 = x²

169 = x²

x = 13
