Which of the following statements is true only if triangles EFI and GFH are similar?
2 answers:
Answer: Choice B
FH/FI = HG/IE
================================================
Explanation:
We're told that triangles EFI and GFH are similar. The order of the lettering is important because it tells us how the angles pair up.
- E and G pair up because they are the first letters of EFI and GFH
- F and F pair up as they are the second letters
- I and H pair up because they are the third letters
This means
Furthermore, it means
- EF corresponds to FG
- FI corresponds to FH
- IE corresponds to GH
Focus on the last two items of the list above. We can then form the proportion
FI/FH = IE/GH
which is the same as
FH/FI = GH/IE
when we apply the reciprocal to both sides. Since HG is the same as GH, we can then say
FH/FI = HG/IE
So basically the corresponding sides create equal ratios to form this proportion. There are many other proportions that can be formed.

Answer:
13
Step-by-step explanation:
So first Subtract 100 from 250. Since you are trying to find out the amount of hours, you don’t need the tips to count.
The next step is too either do the equation 150 divided by 11.50 or you can multiply 11.50 by 13.
it’s not fourteen because 149.5 is closer to 150 then 161
