12 foot in 3 peicies in which two are of same lenght say as x and x and the third one is twice of other i.e. 2x then
x+x+2x = 12
4x=12
x=3
so two are of 3 foot each and one is of 6 feet long

It depends on whether the leg of length 19 is the hypotenuse or not. If it is then the length of the other leg = sqrt(192 - 122) = sqrt(217) = 14.731 units If not, then the length of the other leg (which is the hypotenuse) = sqrt(192 + 122) = sqrt(505) = 22.472 units.

If the question means "Can the three pieces of wood be placed together to form a triangle", which I suspect it does, the answer is No. In a triangle, any two sides must be longer than the other. 4 + 7 is not longer than 13, so they could not meet is one was joined to a different end of the 13 inch board.
