Question

question 2: using the segment addition postulate
find hj
5 12
hi + ij = hj
5+12 = 17
17 units
question 9

1. find hj

10 units
14 units
17 units
19 units

Explanation:

Step1: Apply segment - addition postulate

According to the segment - addition postulate, if we have a line segment $GJ$ with a point $H$ and $I$ on it such that $G - H - I - J$, then $HJ=HI + IJ$.

Step2: Substitute given values

Given $HI = 5$ and $IJ = 12$. Substituting these values into the formula $HJ=HI + IJ$, we get $HJ=5 + 12$.

Step3: Calculate the result

$5+12 = 17$.

Answer:

17 units
