5 Trapezoids What makes a quadrilateral a trapezoid?

6 Definition: Trapezoid trapezoid A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel opposite sides.

7 Trapezoid A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides. Each of the parallel sides is called a base. The nonparallel sides are called legs. Base angles of a trapezoid are two consecutive angles whose common side is a base.

8 Isosceles Trapezoid If the legs of a trapezoid are congruent, the trapezoid is an isosceles trapezoid. The following theorems state the properties of an isosceles trapezoid.

9 Isosceles Trapezoid Theorem 6.12 If a trapezoid is isosceles, then each pair of base angles is congruent.

10 Isosceles Trapezoid Theorem 6.13 If a trapezoid has a pair of congruent base angles, then it is an isosceles trapezoid. If ∠ D ≅∠ C, then trapezoid ABCD is an isosceles.

11 Isosceles Trapezoids If the legs of a trapezoid are ≅, then it is called an isosceles trapezoid. Theorem 6.12: Both pairs of base  s of an isosceles trapezoid are ≅. (  A ≅  D and  B ≅  C) Theorem 6.13: If one pair of base  s are ≅, then it is an isosceles trapezoid. (If ∠ B ≅∠ C, then trapezoid ABCD is isosceles)

12 The top of this work station appears to be two adjacent trapezoids. Determine if they are isosceles trapezoids. Each pair of base angles is congruent, so the legs are the same length. Answer: Both trapezoids are isosceles. Example 1:

13 The sides of a picture frame appear to be two adjacent trapezoids. Determine if they are isosceles trapezoids. Answer: yes Your Turn:

14 Example 2 A. BASKET Each side of the basket shown is an isosceles trapezoid. If m  JML = 130, KN = 6.7 feet, and LN = 3.6 feet, find m  MJK.

15 Example 2 Since JKLM is a trapezoid, JK ║ LM. m  JML + m  MJK=180Consecutive Interior Angles Theorem m  JML + 130=180Substitution m  JML=50Subtract 130 from each side. Answer: m  JML = 50

17 Example 3 PQRS is an isosceles trapezoid. Find the missing angle measures. SOLUTION PQRS is an isosceles trapezoid and  R and  S are a pair of base angles. So, m  R = m  S = 50°. 1. Because  S and  P are same-side interior angles formed by parallel lines, they are supplementary. So, m  P = 180° – 50° = 130°. 2. Because  Q and  P are a pair of base angles of an isosceles trapezoid, m  Q = m  P = 130°. 3.

19 Trapezoid Midsegment midsegment A midsegment of a trapezoid is a segment that connects the midpoints of the legs of a trapezoids.

20 Medians of Trapezoids  The segment that joins the midpoints of the legs of a trapezoid is called the median (MN). It is also referred to as the midsegment. BC || AD median

21 Trapezoid Midsegment Properties The midsegment of a trapezoid is parallel to each base and its length is one half the sum of the lengths of the bases. If

22 Review: Trapezoids Trapezoid Characteristics Bases Parallel Legs are not Parallel Leg angles are supplementary (m  A + m  C = 180, m  B + m  D = 180) Midsegment is parallel to bases Midsegment = ½ (base + base) ½(AB + CD) Isosceles Trapezoid Characteristics Legs are congruent (AC  BD) Base angle pairs congruent (  A   B,  C   D) AB CD base leg midpoint midsegment leg midpoint A B CD M

26 Example 5 Find the length of the midsegment DG of trapezoid CEFH. SOLUTION Use the formula for the midsegment of a trapezoid. DG = 1 2 (EF + CH) Formula for midsegment of a trapezoid = 1 2 (8 + 20) Substitute 8 for EF and 20 for CH. = 1 2 (28) Add. = 14 Multiply. ANSWER The length of the midsegment DG is 14.
