Trapezoids

Another type of quadrilateral that is NOT in the parallelogram family is the trapezoid.

A trapezoid is a type of quadrilateral with only one pair of parallel sides.

Answer: x=12

Diagonals of a Trapezoid

For most trapezoids, there are no special properties about the diagonals.

Some types of trapezoids have congruent diagonals, which we'll see later.

Multiple Select

Select all of the properties below that are true about ALL trapezoids.

• Pair of parallel sides

• Pair of congruent sides

• Two pairs of supplementary angles

• Two pairs of congruent angles

• Congruent diagonals

Isosceles Trapezoid

• Much like an Isosceles triangle, an isosceles trapezoid has two congruent sides

• The congruent sides will ALWAYS be the non parallel sides

• Look for the congruent markings to know that a trapezoid is isosceles

Isosceles Trapezoid

• An isosceles trapezoid has a few more unique properties...

• "Base" angles are congruent (A and D; B and C)

• Diagonals are congruent

Multiple Choice

Select the correct values of x and y

• x=56, y=56

• x=56, y=124

• x=124, y=56

• x=124, y=124

Multiple Select

Select all of the properties below that are true about Isosceles trapezoids.

• Pair of parallel sides

• Pair of congruent sides

• Two pairs of supplementary angles

• Two pairs of congruent angles

• Congruent diagonals
