Can you help me find the value of Z
![**Find the value for \( z \).**
The diagram provided consists of two intersecting lines forming a geometric figure. The points labeled are \( C, D, E, F, \) and \( G \). The following segments are marked with their lengths:
- \( \overline{CE} = 3 \)
- \( \overline{ED} = 6 \)
- \( \overline{EG} = z \)
- \( \overline{GF} = 10 \)
- \( \overline{DF} = 6 \)
To solve for \( z \), utilize the properties of similar triangles or geometric relationships displayed in the setup.
