We can use the proportionality of corresponding sides in similar triangles to find the length of the corresponding side in triangle xyz.

Let the length of the corresponding side of triangle xyz be x. Then we can set up the following proportion:

5/2 = x/5

Solving for x, we get:

x = 5(5/2) = 12.5

Therefore, the length of the corresponding side in triangle xyz is 12.5 units.
