Answer:
FG = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
We'll begin by calculating HF. This can be obtained by using the pythagoras theory as illustrated below:
EF = 7
EH = 3
HF =?
EF² = EH² + HF²
7² = 3² + HF²
49 = 9 + HF²
Collect like terms
49 – 9 = HF²
40 = HF²
Take the square root of both side
HF = √40
Finally, we shall determine FG. This can be obtained as follow:
GH = 3
HF = √40
FG =.?
FG² = GH² + HF²
FG² = 3² + (√40)²
FG² = 9 + 40
FG² = 49
Take the square root of both side
FG = √49
FG = 7
