• Choice C

    △ABC\triangle ABC is isosceles with AB‾≅CB‾\overline{AB} \cong \overline{CB}.

    DD, EE, HH are midpoints of AB‾\overline{AB}, CB‾\overline{CB}, AC‾\overline{AC}. FF, GG are midpoints of DH‾\overline{DH}, EH‾\overline{EH}.

    By the midpoint triangle theorem, △DEH\triangle DEH has 14\frac{1}{4} the area of △ABC\triangle ABC.

    △FGH\triangle FGH has 14\frac{1}{4} the area of △DEH\triangle DEH.

    Area of △ABCArea of △FGH=11/16=16:1\frac{\text{Area of } \triangle ABC}{\text{Area of } \triangle FGH} = \frac{1}{1/16} = 16:1
