Geometric shapes

[VeeN22]

In the figure, AF=2CG and FE||GB.
AE =2
AB 5
Determine AF/FG.
2CG/FG = 2/5

How do I get CG?

2CG/FG = 2/5 Where did this statement come from?

 

[VeeN22]

2CG/FG = 2/5 Where did this statement come from?

I wrote that statement from what I understood that AF is equal to 2CG. And it is given that AE/AB = 2/5.

 

[Dr.Peterson]

But AF/FG is not equal to AE/AB; it's equal to AE/EB.

I'm not sure there's enough information to find the value of CG. Please state the entire problem exactly as given, so I can be sure.

First question says, Determine AF/FG.

The next question is to determine CH/HE.

 

[Dr.Peterson]

Now redo your work. If AE/AB=2/5, what is AE/EB?

As for CG, you don't need it. You only need ratios.

Using \(AAA\) is it true \(\Delta CEF\approx \Delta CNG\) & \(\Delta AEF\approx \Delta ABG~?\)
