x^{2}+2xz+z^{2}=x^{2}+y^{2}
Use binomial theorem \left(a+b\right)^{2}=a^{2}+2ab+b^{2} to expand \left(x+z\right)^{2}.
x^{2}+2xz+z^{2}-x^{2}=y^{2}
Subtract x^{2} from both sides.
2xz+z^{2}=y^{2}
Combine x^{2} and -x^{2} to get 0.
2xz=y^{2}-z^{2}
Subtract z^{2} from both sides.
2zx=y^{2}-z^{2}
The equation is in standard form.
\frac{2zx}{2z}=\frac{\left(y-z\right)\left(y+z\right)}{2z}
Divide both sides by 2z.
x=\frac{\left(y-z\right)\left(y+z\right)}{2z}
Dividing by 2z undoes the multiplication by 2z.
x=\frac{y^{2}}{2z}-\frac{z}{2}
Divide \left(y-z\right)\left(y+z\right) by 2z.
