1
Warm Up Find the distance between the points (-2, -5) and (4, 3).
2
6.5 Trapezoids & Kites
3
Trapezoid: quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides Bases: parallel sides Legs: non-parallel sides
4
Trapezoid: quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides Bases Angles: 2 angles that share the same base Adjacent angles (one from each base) are supplementary. 115⁰ 65⁰
5
Isosceles Trapezoid: trapezoid where the legs are congruent *If the legs are congruent then the base angles are congruent
6
Properties of an Isosceles Trapezoid One pair of opposite sides are parallel Diagonals are congruent
7
Ex.1 CDEF is an isosceles trapezoid where CD and FE are the legs. If CD = 10 and m ∠ E = 95°, then find EF, m ∠ C, m ∠ D, and m ∠ F. F E D C
8
Ex.2 The vertices of trapezoid WXYZ are W(-1, 2), X(3, 0), Y(4, -3), and Z(-4, 1). Show that WXYZ is an isosceles trapezoid.
9
Midsegment of a Trapezoid: a segment that connects the midpoints of the legs The midsegment is parallel to the bases. ** The midsegment is the average of the two parallel bases**
10
Ex.3 A potter crafts a trapezoidal relish dish, placing a divider, shown by AB, in the middle of the dish. How long must the divider be to ensure that it divides the legs in half? 8in 10in A B
11
Warm Up Find the missing side in the triangle below. 5 m x 13 m
12
Kite: a quadrilateral where the diagonals are perpendicular Properties: *Exactly one pair of opposite angles are congruent *Diagonal bisects the non-congruent angles
13
Kite: a quadrilateral where the diagonals are perpendicular Properties: *2 pair of consecutive sides congruent *The diagonal connecting the congruent angles is bisected by the other diagonal
14
Ex. 1 GHJK is a kite. Find HP.
15
Ex. 2 Find the length of each side of the kite. If m ∠ ADC = 92° and m ∠ ABC = 128°, find m ∠ BAD and m ∠ BCD.
16
Ex. 3 RSTU is a kite. Find m ∠ R, m ∠ S, m ∠ T.
17
Ex. 4* DEFG is a kite. Find the value of x and y.
18
You may use a “Property Cheat Sheet” on tomorrow’s quiz. Only 1 sheet of paper allowed.
19
Warm Up The vertices of KLMN are K(-3, 5), L(0, 7), M(2, 7), and N(3, 5). Is KLMN a trapezoid? If it is, tell whether it is isosceles and find its midsegment length.
