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
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.
First, 123 - 55 = 68 which is how many boys voted. So, the ratio is 55:68
Divide 4 by 6. Easier if you write it as a fraction: 4/6 This can be reduced to 2/3. This means that each person gets 2/3 of a pie equally.
A wall is in the shape of a trapezoid and it can be divided into a rectangle and a triangle. A triangle is with angles 45°- 45° - 90°. The hypotenuse of that triangle is 13√2 ft.Using the 45° - 45° - 90° theorem, sides of that triangle are in the proportion:x : x : x√2, and since that x√2 = 13√2 ( hypotenuse ), x = 13.Therefore h = 13 ft.We can check it: c² = 13² + 13²,c² = 169 + 169c² = 338c = √ 338 = 13√2Answer: h = 13 ft
