Answer:  x = 3

Explanation

A rectangle has all 4 angles of 90 degrees each.

Triangle LMO is a right triangle.

Use the Pythagorean theorem to tie together the 3 sides.

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

(5x)^2 + (36)^2 = (13x)^2

25x^2 + 1296 = 169x^2

1296 = 169x^2 - 25x^2

1296 = 144x^2

x^2 = 1296/144

x^2 = 9

x = sqrt(9)

x = 3
