Sorry, without additional information or a diagram, it is not possible to determine the length of Y. Please provide further context or clarification.

Thank you for the clarification.
If we assume that the values X and Z represent the lengths of the legs of the right triangle, then we can use the Pythagorean theorem to find the value of the hypotenuse Y. The Pythagorean theorem states that:
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
where a and b are the lengths of the legs and c is the length of the hypotenuse.
Substituting the given values X = 12cm and Z = 20cm, we have:
12^2 + b^2 = 20^2
144 + b^2 = 400
b^2 = 400 - 144
b^2 = 256
Taking the square root of both sides:
b = sqrt(256)
b = 16
Therefore, the length of Y (the hypotenuse) is 16cm.
