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

What is true about the angles in a trapezoid?

Back

In a trapezoid, the sum of the angles on the same side of the leg is 180 degrees.

Front

What are the properties of the diagonals in a kite?

Back

The diagonals of a kite are perpendicular to each other.

Front

What defines an isosceles trapezoid?

Back

An isosceles trapezoid has a pair of opposite sides that are parallel and the non-parallel sides (legs) are congruent.

Front

How do you find the missing angle in a trapezoid?

Back

To find the missing angle, use the property that the sum of the angles on the same side of the leg is 180 degrees.

Front

What is the relationship between the sides of a kite?

Back

A kite has two pairs of consecutive sides that are congruent.

Front

What is the measure of the angles in a kite?

Back

Front

What is the formula for the area of a trapezoid?

Back

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

What is the definition of congruent sides?

Back

Congruent sides are sides that have the same length.
