To determine the type of figurative language used in each sentence, you can analyze the comparison or exaggeration being made. Here's how you can identify the type of figurative language used in each sentence:

2. "I am so hungry I could eat a horse."
- The exaggeration being made is that the person is extremely hungry. Since it is an exaggerated statement, it is an example of hyperbole. The first letter for hyperbole is "H."

3. "She was as quiet as a mouse."
- The comparison being made is between the girl's quietness and a mouse's quietness. Since it uses the word "as," it is an example of a simile. The first letter for simile is "S."

4. "I have told you a million times."
- The exaggeration being made is that the person has told the other person many times. It is an exaggerated statement, so it is an example of hyperbole. The first letter for hyperbole is "H."
