1. 1 Lesson 6-6 Trapezoids and Kites

2. 2 Trapezoid A quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides. Definition: Base Leg/ Height Isosceles trapezoid is a trapezoid with congruent legs. Trapezoid The parallel sides are called the bases and the non parallel sides are called the legs. Isosceles trapezoid

3. 3 Properties of Isosceles Trapezoid 2. The diagonals of an isosceles trapezoid are congruent. 1. Both pairs of base angles of an isosceles trapezoid are congruent. A B C D Base Angles

4. 4 The MEDIAN of a trapezoid is the segment that joins the midpoints of the legs. The MEDIAN IS ALSO CALLED THE MIDSEGMENT. The median of a trapezoid is parallel to the bases, and its measure is one-half the sum of the measures of the bases. Median Median of a Trapezoid
