Answer:

EG = 16

Explanation:

Given a segment joining the midpoints of 2 sides , then the segment is half the measure of the third side, thus

EG = 2 × BC = 2 × 8 = 16

The triangles are similar because they have two sides and the angle between them (EFG) respectively equals, and it’s evident the factor between the two triangles is 2. So EG=2CB=2*8=16

Simple!!! Hope it helps!
