From a point inside an equilateral triangle, three perpendiculars are drawn. length of an arm of the equilateral triangle?

From a point inside an equilateral triangle, three perpendiculars are drawn on its three sides measuring 6cm, 8cm and 12 cm. What is the length of an arm of the equilateral triangle?

I found an answer to my problem but I don't think its simplified. Here it is:

cosine 48= 13/x .6691=13/x 1/13 ∗ .6691 = 13/x ∗ 1/13 .6691/13=x   Can my answer be simplified further?!? Please help me!
