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

  • E = G
  • F = F
  • I = H

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.

Hawick is 1515 miles south of Abbotsford, and Kelso is 1717 miles east of Abbotsford. What is the distance from Hawick to Kelso?
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

As per the statement:

Hawick is 15 miles south of Abbotsford, and Kelso is 17 miles east of Abbotsford.

Let  H represents  Hawick , A represents Abbotsford and K represents Kelso

See the diagram as shown below:

Distance of AH = 15 miles

Distance of AK = 17 miles.

We have to find the distance HK:

Using Pythagoras theorem;

\text{Hypotenuse side}^2 = \text{Adjacent side}^2 + \text{opposite side}^2

then;

\text{HK}^2 = 15^2+17^2 = 225 + 289 = 514

or

HK = \sqrt{514} =22.671581 miles.

Therefore, the distance from Hawick to Kelso( to the nearest tenth place) is 22.6 miles
