In the diagram, AC = 6. CE = 12, DF = 4, and AB is parallel to DE.
The area of the triangle ABC12

  1. Quantity A is greater.
  2. Quantity B is greater.
  3. The Two quantities are equal.
  4. Quantity B is greater.

Correct Answer: B

Explanation:

The triangles CBA and CDE are similar, so all corresponding lengths are proportional. Each length in CBA is 1/2 as big as the corresponding length in CDE. Think about DF, the altitude in CDE, and the length to which it would correspond in CBA: an altitude from vertex B to the base AC.

Call that h. Since DF = 4, h = 2.

Now, for CBA, we have an altitude h = 2 and a base AC = 6.
