The relationship between sides DY, PY and DP is that they form a right-angled triangle.
The value of side length DY is 8 units
Side length DY can be calculated using the following Pythagoras theorem.
So, we have:
[tex]DP^2 =DY^2 + PY^2[/tex]
Substitute values for DP, DY and PY
[tex]10^2 =DY^2 + 6^2[/tex]
Evaluate the squares
[tex]100 =DY^2 + 36[/tex]
Subtract 36 from both sides
[tex]64 =DY^2[/tex]
Take square roots of both sides
[tex]8 =DY[/tex]
Rewrite as:
[tex]DY = 8[/tex]
Hence, the value of side length DY is 8 units
