Answer:

x = 26.5

y = 12.0

z = 13.4

Step-by-step explanation:

✔️To find x, apply the leg rule, which is:

Hypotenuse/leg = leg/part

Hypotenuse = 30

Leg = x

Part = 30 - 6 = 24

Plug in the values into the equation

30/x = x/24

Cross multiply

x² = 30*24

x² = 720

x = √720

x = 26.5 (nearest tenth)

✔️Apply the triangle altitude theorem to find y:

Based on the theorem, h = √(ab)

Where,

a = 6

b = 30 - 6 = 24

h = y

Plug in the values

y = √(6*24)

y = √144

y = 12

✔️Apply the leg rule, Hypotenuse/leg = leg/part to find z:

Hypotenuse = 30

Leg = z

Part = 6

Plug in the values into the equation

30/z = z/6

Cross multiply

z² = 30*6

z² = 180

z = √180

z = 13.4 (nearest tenth)
