8.5 Trapezoids and Kites

Objectives: Students will analyze and apply properties of trapezoids and kites. Why? So you can measure part of a building, as in Example 2. Mastery is 80% or better on 5-minute checks and practice problems.
4
Using properties of trapezoids A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides. The parallel sides are the bases. A trapezoid has two pairs of base angles. For instance in trapezoid ABCD D and C are one pair of base angles. The other pair is A and B. The nonparallel sides are the legs of the trapezoid.
5
Using properties of trapezoids If the legs of a trapezoid are congruent, then the trapezoid is an isosceles trapezoid.
6
Trapezoid Theorems Theorem 8.14 If a trapezoid is isosceles, then each pair of base angles is congruent. A ≅ B, C ≅ D
7
Trapezoid Theorems Theorem 8.15 If a trapezoid has a pair of congruent base angles, then it is an isosceles trapezoid. ABCD is an isosceles trapezoid
8
Trapezoid Theorems Theorem 8.16 A trapezoid is isosceles if and only if its diagonals are congruent. ABCD is isosceles if and only if AC ≅ BD.

Skill Develop Ex. 1: Using properties of Isosceles Trapezoids PQRS is an isosceles trapezoid. Find m P, m Q, m R. PQRS is an isosceles trapezoid, so m R = m S = 50 °. Because S and P are consecutive interior angles formed by parallel lines, they are supplementary. So m P = 180 °- 50° = 130°, and m Q = m P = 130° 50 ° You could also add 50 and 50, get 100 and subtract it from 360°. This would leave you 260/2 or 130°.
10
Skill Develop Ex. 2: Using properties of trapezoids Show that ABCD is a trapezoid. Compare the slopes of opposite sides. The slope of AB = 5 – 0 = 5 = - 1 0 – 5 -5 The slope of CD = 4 – 7 = -3 = - 1 7 – 4 3 The slopes of AB and CD are equal, so AB ║ CD. The slope of BC = 7 – 5 = 2 = 1 4 – 0 4 2 The slope of AD = 4 – 0 = 4 = 2 7 – 5 2 The slopes of BC and AD are not equal, so BC is not parallel to AD. So, because AB ║ CD and BC is not parallel to AD, ABCD is a trapezoid.
11
Midsegment of a trapezoid The midsegment of a trapezoid is the segment that connects the midpoints of its legs. Theorem 8.17 is similar to the Midsegment Theorem for triangles.
12
Theorem 8.17: Midsegment of a trapezoid The midsegment of a trapezoid is parallel to each base and its length is one half the sums of the lengths of the bases. MN ║AD, MN║BC MN = ½ (AD + BC)
13
Ex. 3: Finding Midsegment lengths of trapezoids A baker is making a cake like the one at the right. The top layer has a diameter of 8 inches and the bottom layer has a diameter of 20 inches. How big should the middle layer be?
14
Ex. 3: Finding Midsegment lengths of trapezoids Use the midsegment theorem for trapezoids. HG = ½(EF + CD)= ½ (8 + 20) = 14” C H E D G F
15
Using properties of kites A kite is a quadrilateral that has two pairs of consecutive congruent sides, but opposite sides are not congruent.
16
Kite theorems Theorem 8.18 If a quadrilateral is a kite, then its diagonals are perpendicular. AC BD
17
Kite theorems Theorem 8.19 If a quadrilateral is a kite, then exactly one pair of opposite angles is congruent. A ≅ C, B ≅ D
18
Think…Ink…Share Ex. 4: Using the diagonals of a kite WXYZ is a kite so the diagonals are perpendicular. You can use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the side lengths. WX = √ 20 2 + 12 2 ≈ 23.32 XY = √ 12 2 + 12 2 ≈ 16.97 Because WXYZ is a kite, WZ = WX ≈ 23.32, and ZY = XY ≈ 16.97
19
Ex. 5: Angles of a kite Find m G and m J in the diagram at the right. SOLUTION: GHJK is a kite, so G ≅ J and m G = m J. 2(m G) + 132 ° + 60° = 360°Sum of measures of int. s of a quad. is 360° 2(m G) = 168°Simplify m G = 84° Divide each side by 2. So, m J = m G = 84° 132 ° 60 °
