As we already know that cos(60) is 0.5 and value decreases as we go towards 90 degrees in cos function.
In the given problem, base is 5 and hypotenuse is 13 which suggests cos(angle) = 5/13 which is less than 0.5
So, we can fairly think that the angle would be more than 60 degrees.
Hence the answer is E - 60 to 90 degrees.
