yes similar

anonymous · Answer

so what will the answer be? i thought it was D

lynfran · Answer

well i think they are similar since BC=DC =10 and FG=HG=20 just a scale factor of 2

calculusxy · Answer

I think that you are correct @kylezz because if we look at BA and AD (both of which are 2) and FE and EH (both of which are 5) and then compare it to BC and DC (10) and FG and HG (10), then there is not a proportionality.

calculusxy · Answer

Sorry FG and HG are 20

anonymous · Answer

Thats exactly what i was thinking, but i wasnt sure

calculusxy · Answer

So that was just what I thought. You can go ahead with it if you want :)
