12c. The equation for a(x) is linear, so the graph is<br />
a line. The equation for A(x) is quadratic, so the<br />
graph is a parabola.<br />
13. Possible proof: The area of the first rectangle<br />
is bh. The area of the dilated rectangle is rh rb,or<br />
r2bh. The ratio of the area of the dilated rectangle<br />
to the area of the original rectangle is r2bh<br />

Consider similar triangles LVE and MTH with<br />
corresponding altitudes EO and HA . Show<br />
EO EL<br />
that LOE MAH, then HA<br />
. HM<br />
You know<br />
that L M. Because EO and HA are altitudes,<br />
LOE and MAH are both right angles, and<br />
LOE MAH.<br />
EO EL<br />
So, LOE MAH by AA. Thus HA<br />
, HM<br />
which shows that the corresponding altitudes<br />
are proportional to corresponding sides.<br />
19. x 92°; Explanations will vary but should<br />
reference properties of linear pairs, isosceles<br />
triangles, and alternate interior angles formed<br />
by parallel lines.<br />

23. Two pairs of angles are congruent, so the<br />
triangles are similar by the AA Similarity<br />
Conjecture. However, the two sets of corresponding<br />
sides are not proportional 6<br />

Top: 6 square units; front: 4 square units; right side:<br />
4 square units. The sum of the areas is half the<br />
surface area. The volume of the original solid is<br />
8 cubic units. The volume of the enlarged solid is<br />
512 cubic units. The ratio of volumes is 64<br />
