Correct Answer: 6 cm
Solution : As per the given question, we draw a figure of a right-angled triangle DEF. The median DX splits the right triangle into two isosceles triangles, and the median is half the length of the hypotenuse. $\therefore$ EF = 12 cm ⇒ DX = XE = XF = $\frac{12}{2}$ = 6 cm Hence, the correct answer is 6 cm.
