Answer:

6.5 units

Step-by-step explanation:

In circle with center O, AB is diameter.

[tex] \therefore m\angle ACB = 90°\\[/tex]

(Angle inscribed in a semicircle)

[tex] \therefore \: in\: \triangle ABC, \:AB \: is\: hypotenuse \\[/tex]

By Pythagorean theorem:

[tex]AB = \sqrt{ {12}^{2} + {5}^{2} } \\ = \sqrt{144 + 25} \\ = \sqrt{169} \\ AB \: = 13 \\ r = \frac{13}{2} = 6.5 \: units[/tex]
