B. ∠H is not a right angle
Since the calculation showed that JI = 5 when assuming ∠H is a right angle and the given statement is that JI ≠ 5, it can be concluded that ∠H is not a right angle.
If we assume ∠H is a right angle, it follows that JI = √3^2+4^2= 5. This contradicts the given statement that JI ≠ 5. What conclusion
can be drawn from this contradiction
A. ∠H is a right angle
B. ∠H is not a right angle
C. JI > 5
D. JI = 5
