Problem 30
The dimensions of a triangular prism are decreased so that the volume of the new prism is \(\frac{1}{3}\) that of the original volume. Are the two prisms similar? Explain.
Problem 31
MICROWAVES The inside of a microwave oven has a volume of 1.2 cubic feet and measures 18 inches wide and 10 inches long. To the nearest tenth, how deep is the inside of the microwave? (Hint: Convert 1.2 cubic feet to cubic inches.)
Problem 34
Suppose \(\triangle A B C\) is reflected over the \(y\) -axis. If the coordinates of \(\triangle A B C\) are \(A(-2,-3), B(1,-1),\) and \(C(3,2),\) what are the coordinates of $\triangle A^{\prime} B^{\prime} C^{\prime} ?
Problem 37
