Trapezoids and Kites

Front

What is an isosceles trapezoid?

Back

An isosceles trapezoid is a trapezoid in which the non-parallel sides are equal in length.

Front

What is the sum of the interior angles of a trapezoid?

Back

The sum of the interior angles of a trapezoid is 360 degrees.

Front

How do you find the missing angle in a trapezoid?

Back

To find the missing angle in a trapezoid, use the property that the sum of the angles in a trapezoid is 360 degrees.

Front

What is the property of the diagonals in a kite?

Back

The diagonals in a kite are perpendicular to each other.

Front

What is the relationship between the angles in a kite?

Back

In a kite, the angles between the unequal sides are equal.

Front

How do you calculate the length of a diagonal in a kite?

Back

The length of a diagonal in a kite can be calculated using the Pythagorean theorem if the lengths of the sides are known.

Front

What is the formula for the area of a trapezoid?

Back

The area of a trapezoid can be calculated using the formula: Area = (1/2) * (b1 + b2) * h, where b1 and b2 are the lengths of the two bases and h is the height.

Front

What is the definition of a kite in geometry?

Back

A kite is a quadrilateral with two distinct pairs of adjacent sides that are equal in length.

Front

How do you find the measure of an angle in a kite given other angles?

Back

To find the measure of an angle in a kite, use the property that the sum of the angles in a quadrilateral is 360 degrees.
