4. Trapezoid A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides. The parallel sides are the bases. The nonparallel sides are the legs. leg base leg

5. Isosceles Trapezoid A trapezoid with congruent legs.

6. Midsegment of a Trapezoid The midsegment of a trapezoid is the segment that connect the midpoints of its legs.

7. Kite A kite is a quadrilateral that has two pairs of consecutive congruent sides, but opposite sides are NOT congruent.

8. Theorems about Trapezoids Theorem 6.14 If a trapezoid is isosceles, then each pair of base angles is congruent. D A B C Given: ABCD is a trapezoid AD  BC Conclusion:  A   B and  C  D

9. Theorems about Trapezoids Theorem 6.15 If a trapezoid has a pair of congruent base angles, then it is an isosceles trapezoid. A B C Given: ABCD is a trapezoid,  A  B Conclusion: AD  BC D

10. Theorems about Trapezoids Theorem 6.16 A trapezoid is isosceles if and only if its diagonals are congruent. A B C D If AC  DB then ABCD is isosceles and If ABCD is isosceles then AC  DB

11. Theorems about Trapezoids Theorem 6.17 The Midsegment Theorem for Trapezoids The midsegment of a trapezoid is parallel to each base and its length is the average of the two bases. A B C D M N MN ll AD, MN ll BC MN=

12. Theorems about Kites Theorem 6.18 If a quadrilateral is a kite, then its diagonals are perpendicular. A C D B BD  AC
