1. 6-6 Trapezoids and Kites Objective: To verify and use properties of trapezoids and kites

2. Pair of base angles Bases Trapezoid: A quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides. Parallel sides are bases. Non parallel sides are legs. The two angles that share a base of a trapezoid are base angles.

3. The midsegment is parallel to the base. The length of the midsegment is half the sum of the lengths of the bases. also…

4. Example: x = 3

5. Isosceles trapezoid Each pair of base angles are congruent. It’s diagonals are congruent.

6. Each pair of base angles are congruent.

7. A kite is a quadrilateral with two pairs of consecutive sides congruent and no opposite sides congruent Kite 6-6 p. 394: 7-23 odd
