![begin mathsize 16px style According space to space the space question comma
CA equals straight a space and space CB equals straight b
CA minus CB equals 7
straight a minus straight b equals 7
straight a equals straight b plus 7......... left parenthesis straight i right parenthesis
AC squared plus BC squared equals AB squared
straight a squared plus straight b squared equals 13 squared equals 169
open parentheses 7 plus straight b close parentheses squared plus straight b squared equals 169 space space space space space from space left parenthesis straight i right parenthesis
Solving space this space we space get
straight b equals 5 equals CB
Hence comma space straight a equals 12 equals CA end style](https://images.topperlearning.com/topper/tinymce/cache/df0ddc20751d00d092b3d6d65ce2ebc8.png)
