Math Problem Statement
Find the length of FH given that FG = 22 and HG = 15.
Solution
In the given image, the line segment is divided into two parts at point . The length of segment units and the total length of segment units.
To find the length of segment , we subtract the length of from the total length :
Substituting the known values:
Thus, the length of is units.
