If IJ intersects FG at M, then angles IMG and JMG are right angles
MG is common to both triangles IMG and JMG.
So, via the Pythagorean Theorem, IM ≅ JM.
Now use that last fact, along with the common side FM to show that triangles IMF and JMF are congruent.
That means that IF≅JF
Write a two-column proof.
If FG ⊥ IJ and IG ≅ JG, then FI ≅ FJ
