The length of the measure of YZ is 80cm

Perpendicular lines

Perpendicular lines are lines that are at angle 90 degrees to each other. From the given diagram;

WX = 82cm

Required

Length. of YZ

Using the pythagoras theorem

YV = VZ = √41²-9²

YV = VZ = √1600

YV = VZ = 40

Since YZ = YV + VZ

YZ = 40cm + 40cm

YZ= 80cm

Hence the length of the measure of YZ is 80cm
