Answer:

14 units

Explanation:

If quadrilaterals HGEF and DCAB are similar, then the ratio of some corresponding sides is:

$\frac{FH}{BD}=\frac{EG}{AC}$

Substitute the given side lengths:

$\begin{gathered} \frac{6}{3}=\frac{EG}{7} \\ 2=\frac{EG}{7} \\ \implies EG=2\times7 \\ EG=14 \end{gathered}$

The measurement of line EG is 14 units.

gregori [183]

$\bf \begin{array}{lllll}
&x_1&y_1&x_2&y_2\\
% (a,b)
&({{ -2}}\quad ,&{{ 2}})\quad 
% (c,d)
&({{ 0}}\quad ,&{{ 5}})
\end{array}
\\\\\\
% slope = m
slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies 
\cfrac{{{ y_2}}-{{ y_1}}}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}\implies \cfrac{5-2}{0-(-2)}\implies \cfrac{5-2}{0+2}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{3}{2}$

$\bf y-{{ y_1}}={{ m}}(x-{{ x_1}})\implies y-2=\cfrac{3}{2}(x-(-2))\\
\left. \qquad \right. \uparrow\\
\textit{point-slope form}
\\\\\\
y-2=\cfrac{3}{2}(x+2)\implies y-2=\cfrac{3}{2}x+3\implies y=\cfrac{3}{2}x+3+2
\\\\\\
y=\cfrac{3}{2}x+5$
