Help me fast!!! How did the geography of the Greek peninsula help them defeat the Persians?

Athenian soldiers were able to hide in the valleys.
The Athenians developed a more powerful navy than the Persians.
The Persians were unable to transport supplies into the Greek city-states.
The Persians were unable to cross the mountains.
