The rectangular painting on the wall is 10 feet tall and 12 feet wide, and it covers the same dimensions on the ground. The wall is perpendicular to the ground. What is the distance between the top left corner of the painting on the wall (A) and the bottom right corner of the painting on the ground (B)? Round your answer to the nearest hundredth of a foot. </SPAN>\n" );
