Answer:

  • x = 4
  • y ≈ 10.8

Step-by-step explanation:

In this geometry, the triangles are similar. That means corresponding sides are proportional:

  short side/long side = x/10 = 10/25

  x = 100/25 = 4 . . . . multiply by 10

__

  hypotenuse/short side = y/x = (x+25)/y

  y² = 4(29) = 116 . . . . . use 4 for x; cross multiply

  y = √116 ≈ 10.8
