5-M INUTE C HECK 1 1) LMNO is a rhombus. Find x. 2) LMNO is a rhombus. Find y. 3) QRST is a square. Find n if m TQR = 8n + 8.
2
6-6 T RAPEZOIDS AND K ITES
3
T RAPEZOID Quadrilateral with one pair of parallel sides Parallel sides are called the “bases”. Non-parallel sides are called the “legs”.
4
I SOSCELES T RAPEZOID Trapezoid where the legs are congruent Diagonals are congruent.
5
T HEOREM Base angles of an isosceles trapezoid are congruent. What else can you tell me about angles x and y? They are supplements! xx y y
6
TOO: F IND THE MISSING ANGLES 1) 2) 70 110 35 145
7
T HEOREM The median of a trapezoid is parallel to the bases (Base + Base) divided by 2 b b m
8
E XAMPLE : EF IS THE MEDIAN OF T RAPEZOID ABCD 1) If AB = 25 and DC = 13, find EF. 2) If AB = 29 and EF = 24, find DC. TOO: If AB = 7y + 6, EF = 5y – 3, and DC = y – 5, find y and EF. (both answers are decimals!!) A E DC F B 19 3.514.5
9
Kite Is a Quadrilateral Diagonals are Perpendicular 2 consecutive sets of sides are congruent Longer diagonal bisects the Angles and the shorter diagonal.
10
E XAMPLE If MNPQ is a kite, find NP. NR 2 + MR 2 = MN 2 Pythagorean Theorem (6) 2 + (8) 2 =MN 2 36 + 64=MN 2 100=MN 2 10=MN Since MN NP, NP = 10.
