What is reason 3?

Alake near the arctic circle is covered by a 222-meter-thick sheet of ice during the cold winter months. when spring arrives, the warm air gradually melts the ice, causing its thickness to decrease at a constant rate. after 333 weeks, the sheet is only 1.251.251, point, 25 meters thick. let s(t)s(t)s, left parenthesis, t, right parenthesis denote the ice sheet's thickness sss (measured in meters) as a function of time ttt (measured in weeks).

To prove that def ~ gfh by the sss similarity theorem using the information provided in the diagram, it would be enough additional information to know that
