Change the whole description and question to this:
--
A triangle with 3 sides, AND one right angle. The height is 5km and the HYPOTENUSE of the triangle is 13km.... The base is X..... What is the ~~volume~~ AREA of the TRIANGLE,
in km squared, THE BASE, X, and the perimeter?
--

Pythagorean Theorem formula will let you find the base.

--------Size of the base, kilometers.

Finding the area:
, if h is for "height".
, because you found X and were given height;

Find Perimeter:
Sum of the measures of the sides,
------you called the hypotenuse, "slant".
