First, we need to determine the scale factor between the two triangles. The corresponding sides are EF and HI, so the scale factor is 9.1/57.

Next, we need to find the length of side JH. Since the scale factor is 9.1/57, we can multiply the length of side EF by the scale factor to find the length of side JH.

JH = EF * (9.1/57) = 9.1 * (9.1/57) ≈ 1.44

Therefore, the measure of side JH is approximately 1.44.
