Geometry - Trapezoids & Kites

What is the defining characteristic of a trapezoid?

• A quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides.

• A quadrilateral with only one pair of opposite sides parallel.

• A quadrilateral with all sides congruent.

• A quadrilateral with all angles equal to 90 degrees.

Which of the following is a property of an isosceles trapezoid?

• All four sides are equal in length.

• Its diagonals are perpendicular.

• Its non-parallel sides are congruent.

• It has four right angles.

What is a defining feature of a right trapezoid?

• All its angles are right angles.

• It has two pairs of parallel sides.

• It has at least one pair of 90-degree angles.

• Its diagonals are congruent.

How is the length of the median of a trapezoid calculated?

• By multiplying the lengths of the two bases.

• By finding the difference between the lengths of the two bases.

• By taking the mean (average) of the lengths of the two bases.

• By squaring the lengths of the two bases and adding them.
