Answer 12

Hint:

EF = FG

Why is that true? Because the triangles are similar by AAS, so each corresponding pair of pieces are congruent (EF corresponds to FG)


since EF = FG, we can say n+5 = 2n-6

Answer 13

oh, ok.

Answer 14

solve n+5 = 2n-6 for n

then use that solution to compute the value of 2n-6

Answer 15

I know they are equal I'm just having a hard time finding n

Answer 16

Equate the two segments:
\[n + 5 = 2n - 6\]
Therefore:
\[n = 11\]
and FG = 16

Answer 17

oh wow, thank you so much
