Answer:
see explanation
Explanation:
This is an example of the Altitude - on - Hypotenuse theorem.
The altitude that is perpendicular to the hypotenuse of a right triangle.
The two triangles formed are similar to the given triangle and to each other.
x² = (smaller part) × (larger part) of main hypotenuse
x² = 6 + 19 = 114 ( square root both sides )
x ≈ 10.68 ( nearest hundredth )
---------------------------------------------
y² = ( smaller part) × (whole part) of main hypotenuse
y² = 6 × 25 = 150 ( square root both sides )
y ≈ 12.25 ( nearest hundredth )
--------------------------------------------
z² = ( larger part) × (whole part) of main diagonal
z² = 19 × 25 = 475 ( square root both sides )
z ≈ 21.79 ( nearest hundredth )
