The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will first understand the operation defined by the "star" operation and then apply it to find the value of \(5 \star 12\). ### Step 1: Understand the "star" operation The operation \(a \star b\) is defined as: \[ a \star b = \sqrt{a^2 + b^2} \] This means that for any two numbers \(a\) and \(b\), we take the square of each number, add them together, and then take the square root of the sum. ### Step 2: Apply the operation to \(5 \star 12\) Now, we need to find \(5 \star 12\): \[ 5 \star 12 = \sqrt{5^2 + 12^2} \] ### Step 3: Calculate \(5^2\) and \(12^2\) First, we calculate the squares: \[ 5^2 = 25 \] \[ 12^2 = 144 \] ### Step 4: Add the squares Next, we add the results: \[ 5^2 + 12^2 = 25 + 144 = 169 \] ### Step 5: Take the square root Now, we take the square root of the sum: \[ 5 \star 12 = \sqrt{169} \] ### Step 6: Simplify the square root Finally, we simplify the square root: \[ \sqrt{169} = 13 \] ### Conclusion Thus, the value of \(5 \star 12\) is: \[ \boxed{13} \]
