    D)  9 cm

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    According to question. Ratio of sides of triangle \[=\frac{1}{2}:\frac{1}{3}:\frac{1}{4}=6:4:3\] Now, \[6x+4x+3x=52\,\,\text{cm}\] \[\Rightarrow \]               \[13x=52\] \[\therefore \]                  \[x=4\,\,\text{cm}\] \[\therefore \]Length of smallest side \[=3x=4\times 3\] \[=12\,\,\text{cm}\]
