b) should be answered first, then a) becomes trivial
b)yes, it is similar since there is a common angle at E and both have a 90ยบ angle, so the third angle pair must be equal.
a) as a result, corresponding sides are in the same ratio.
HF/HE = HG/GE
HF/17 = 10/21
HF = 170/21
triangle GHE hypotenus GE=21,the altitude from H intersect GE @ F
GH=10
HE=17
a.Find HF
b.Is triangle EHF similar to triangle HGF ?
