Question

Point G is on line segment FH. Given FG = 8 and GH = 11, determine the length FH​

Answer 1

Given:

Point G is on line segment FH. FG = 8 and GH = 11.

To find:

The length of FH​.

Solution:

Point G is on line segment FH. So, by segment addition property, we get

$FH=FG+GH$

Substitute FG = 8 and GH = 11.

$FH=8+11$

$FH=19$

Therefore, the length of FH​ is 19 units.
