Understanding Trapezoids

What makes a trapezoid unique in terms of its sides?

• It has one pair of parallel sides.

• It has two pairs of parallel sides.

• It has no parallel sides.

• All sides are equal.

If angle S in a trapezoid is 65 degrees, what is the measure of angle R if they are supplementary?

• 115 degrees

• 180 degrees

• 90 degrees

• 65 degrees

In an isosceles trapezoid, which angles are congruent?

• Angles along the same base

• Opposite angles

• All angles

• No angles are congruent

What is a key property of the diagonals in an isosceles trapezoid?

• They are perpendicular.

• They are congruent.

• They are unequal.

• They bisect each other.

How is the median of a trapezoid related to its bases?

• It is equal to the sum of the bases.

• It is half the sum of the bases.

• It is the difference of the bases.

• It is twice the sum of the bases.

If the bases of a trapezoid are 9 and 13, what is the length of the median?

• 13

• 22

• 11

• 10

What is the length of the median if the bases are 5.5 and 12.9?

• 9.2

• 18.4

• 8.7

• 10.5

How do you find an unknown base if the median and one base are known?

• Subtract the known base from the median.

• Double the median and subtract the known base.

• Divide the median by the known base.

• Add the known base to the median.

If the median is 19 and one base is 13, what is the length of the other base?

• 13

• 6

• 25

• 19

What is the length of base VY if the median is 5.5 and base WX is 4.4?

• 3.3

• 4.4

• 5.5

• 6.6
