Problem

△GHI\triangle GHI and △JKL\triangle JKL are right-angled at HH and KK respectively. The following measurements are provided: GH=JK=11 cmGH = JK = 11\,\text{cm}, GI=JL=61 cmGI = JL = 61\,\text{cm}, and KL=60 cmKL = 60\,\text{cm}. (i) Prove that △GHI≅△JKL\triangle GHI \cong \triangle JKL. (ii) Find the length of HIHI. (iii) State which side of △JKL\triangle JKL corresponds to side HIHI of △GHI\triangle GHI under the congruence established in (i).
