This is Pythagorean's Theorem, with one leg being 10 and the hypotenuse being 16.  Using those values in the theorem looks like this:
10^{2} + b^{2} = 16^{2}
and 100+ b^{2} =256
and b^{2} =256-100
so b^{2} =156
Take the square root of both sides to find that b = 12.5

natka813 [3]
\frac{4}{y^{2}-9 } + \frac{5}{y+3} = \frac{4}{(y-3)(y+3) } + \frac{5}{y+3}= \frac{4}{(y-3)(y+3) } + \frac{5(y-3)}{(y-3)(y+3)}=
\\ \\=\frac{4}{(y-3)(y+3) } + \frac{5y-15}{(y-3)(y+3)}= \frac{5y-11}{(y-3)(y+3)}=\frac{5y-11}{y^{2}-9}
