I dont think you need to know tan and other things in GMAT.

But the smallest angle is the angle opposite the side of length 5.

Sine of the smallest angle is opp side by Hypotenuse = 5/13
Cos of the smallest angle is adjacent side by Hypotenuse = 12/13
Tan = sin/cos = 5/12.

But again, this is outisde GMAT scope, unless I am missing something.
Vineesh,
Just telling you what I know and think. I am not the expert. :)

Vineeshp is absolutely correct. The GMAT does not test one's knowledge of sine, cosine's and tangents.
