Answer:

AC = 25.5 or 1.5

Step-by-step explanation:

If they are on a line and they are in the order ABC

AB + BC = AC

12+13.5 = AC

25.5 = AC

If they are on a line and they are in the order CAB

CA + AB = BC

AC + 12 =13.5

AC = 13.5 -12

AC = 1.5

If they are on a line and they are in the order ACB

That would mean that AB is greater than BC and that is not the case
