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.

Hello there! So, 1/4 is equivalent to 0.25, which is 25% in percent form. 0.5 is 50% and 0.2 is 20% in percent form. 50 + 20 + 25 is 95. 100 - 95 is 5. Issac can use 5% of the minutes on the cell phone plan. The answer is D: 5%.
