Evolutionary computations for intermediate-mass stars are analyzed using observed parameters for eclipsing SB2 binaries and theoretical parameters based on evolutionary tracks. Modern observations cannot be used to distinguish between models with and without convective overshooting for stars in the vicinity of the main sequence. Statistically significant discrepancies between the observed and computed stellar parameters are associated with systematic errors in photometric effective temperatures. After taking into account systematic effects, the theoretical computations fit the observational data uniformly well throughout the entire mass interval studied. Empirical and semiempirical (i.e., reduced to the ZAMS and with solar elemental abundances) formulas for the mass-luminosity, mass-effective temperature, and mass-radius relations are proposed.
