Question

Triangle E G F is cut by line H J. Line H J goes from side E G through side G F. Lines E F and H J are parallel. Using the side-splitter theorem, which segment length would complete the proportion? StartFraction G H Over H E EndFraction = StartFraction question mark Over J F EndFraction GF JH GJ EF

Answer 1

It is C

Explanation:

Took it on Edg

Answer 2

GJ

Explanation:

The "Side Splitter" Theorem says that if a line intersects two sides of a triangle and is parallel to the third side of the triangle, it divides those two sides proportionally.

In this case, lines EF and HJ are parallel, H is on side EG and J is on side GF; then using the side-splitter theorem:

`(GH)/(HE) = (GJ)/(JF)`
