yx+y^{2}+yx=z^{2}
Add yx to both sides.
2yx+y^{2}=z^{2}
Combine yx and yx to get 2yx.
2yx=z^{2}-y^{2}
Subtract y^{2} from both sides.
\frac{2yx}{2y}=\frac{\left(z-y\right)\left(y+z\right)}{2y}
Divide both sides by 2y.
x=\frac{\left(z-y\right)\left(y+z\right)}{2y}
Dividing by 2y undoes the multiplication by 2y.
x=\frac{z^{2}}{2y}-\frac{y}{2}
Divide \left(z-y\right)\left(z+y\right) by 2y.
