Answer:

HJ = 8  JE = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

it is given that H is the midpoint of GE and J is the midpoint of FE. According to the midpoint theorem the line segment connecting the midpoint of two sides is parallel to the three side and its length is half of the third side. since JH is connecting the midpoints.

HJ= 1/2 (GF)

x + 3 = 1/2 (4x - 4)

x + 3 = 2x - 2

x = 5

^ Thus meaning the value of x is 5.

Now you just fill into your equations:

HJ = x + 3 = (5)  + 3 = 8

JE = x - 1 = (5) - 1 = 4

Therefore, HJ = 8; JE = 4.
