  1. Trapezoids & Kites

  2. Trapezoid • Is a quadrilateral with exactly 1 pair of parallel sides

  3. BASE base angle base angle leg leg base angle base angle BASE Trapezoid A B C D

  4. If the legs are congruent then the trapezoid is an isosceles trapezoid.

  5. Theorem 6.14 • If a trapezoid is isosceles, then each pair of base angles is congruent.

  6. Theorem 6.15 • If a trapezoid has a pair of congruent base angles, then it isan isosceles trapezoid.

  7. Theorem 6.16 • A trapezoid is isosceles if and only if its diagonals are congruent.

  8. Midsegment • The midsegment of a trapezoid is the segment that connects the midpoints of its legs.

  9. THM 6.17 • The midsegment of a trapezoid is parallel to each base and its length is one half the sum of the lengths of its bases

  10. EX 1 Find the length of MN. 10 16 P Q 13 M N S R

  11. EX 2 Find the value of x. 19 15 17 x

  12. A Kite • A quadrilateral with two pairs of consecutive congruent sides, but opposite sides are not congruent.

  13. Theorem 6.18 • If a quadrilateral is a kite, then its diagonals are perpendicular.

  14. Theorem 6.19 • If a quadrilateral is a kite, then exactly one pair of opposite angles is congruent.

  15. Ex 3 Find the measure of the sides. Round to the nearest tenth. LM = 3.6 LO = 3.6 ON= 5 MN = 5 L 2 O M 3 3 4 N
