Objectives • Recognize and apply the properties of trapezoids • Solve problems involving medians of trapezoids • Apply properties of kites
Vocabulary • Trapezoid – a quadrilateral with only one pair of parallel sides • Isosceles Trapezoid – a trapezoid with both legs (non parallel sides) congruent • Median – a segment that joins the midpoints of the legs of a trapezoid

Trapezoids Trapezoid CharacteristicsBases Parallel Legs are not Parallel Leg angles are supplementary (mA + mC = 180, mB + mD = 180) Median is parallel to basesMedian = ½ (base + base)½(AB + CD) base A B legmidpoint legmidpoint median C D base A B Isosceles Trapezoid CharacteristicsLegs are congruent (AC BD) Base angle pairs congruent (A B, C D) Diagonals are congruent (AD BC) M C D
Kites Characteristics Two pairs of consecutive sides congruent AB AD and CB CD Diagonals are perpendicular AC BD Diagonals are angle bisectors BAC DAC and ABD CBD ADB BDC and BCA DCA Diagonal from noncongruent angles bisects other diagonal diagonal BD is cut in half Only one pair of opposite angles are congruent (the pair of angles formed by the non-congruent sides)ABC ADC A D B C
Example 1a A. If WXYZ is a kite, find mXYZ. Since a kite only has one pair of congruent angles, which are between the two non-congruent sides, WXY WZY. So, WZY = 121. mW + mX + mY + mZ = 360 Polygon Interior Angles Sum Theorem 73 + 121 + mY + 121 = 360 Substitution mY = 45 Simplify. Answer: mXYZ = 45
Example 1b B. If WXYZ is a kite, find NP. Since the diagonals of a kite are perpendicular, they divide MNPQ into four right triangles. Use the Pythagorean Theorem to find MN, the length of the hypotenuse of right ΔMNR. NR2 + MR2 = MN2 Pythagorean Theorem (6)2 + (8)2 = MN2 Substitution 36 + 64 = MN2 Simplify. 100 = MN2 Add. 10 = MN Take the square root of each side. Answer: Since MN NP, MN = NP. By substitution, NP = 10
Example 2 The top of this work station appears to be two adjacent trapezoids. Determine if they are isosceles trapezoids. Each pair of base angles is congruent, so the legs are the same length. Answer: Both trapezoids are isosceles.
Example 3 The sides of a picture frame appear to be two adjacent trapezoids. Determine if they are isosceles trapezoids. Answer: yes
DEFG is an isosceles trapezoid with median Find DG if and Answer: Example 4a Theorem 8.20 Substitution Multiply each side by 2. Subtract 20 from each side.
DEFG is an isosceles trapezoid with median Find , and if and Example 4b Since EF // DG, 1 and 3 are supplementary Because this is an isosceles trapezoid, 1 2 and 3 4 Substitution Combine like terms. Divide each side by 9. Answer: If x = 20, then m1 = 65° and 3 = 115°. Because 1 2 and 3 4, 2 = 65° and 4 = 115°
