What does the vertex diagonal do in a trapezoid?

Back

The vertex diagonal bisects the vertex angles.

Front

True or False: The vertex diagonal bisects the vertex angles in a trapezoid.

Back

Front

What is the relationship between the base angles in an isosceles trapezoid?

Back

The base angles in an isosceles trapezoid are congruent.

Front

Always, sometimes, or never: Are the base angles in a trapezoid congruent?

Back

Sometimes.

Front

What is the formula for finding the length of a midsegment in a triangle?

Back

The length of the midsegment is equal to half the sum of the lengths of the two parallel sides.

Front

How do you find the value of x in a geometric figure?

Back

You can find the value of x by using properties of angles, sides, and relationships in the figure.

Front

What is the sum of the interior angles of a trapezoid?

Back

The sum of the interior angles of a trapezoid is 360 degrees.

Front

What is an isosceles trapezoid?

Back

An isosceles trapezoid is a trapezoid in which the non-parallel sides are equal in length.
