Accelerated Geometry Chapter 6 Test: Quadrilaterals

Front

What is a trapezoid?

Back

A trapezoid is a four-sided figure (quadrilateral) with at least one pair of parallel sides.

Front

What is the midsegment of a trapezoid?

Back

The midsegment of a trapezoid is a line segment that connects the midpoints of the non-parallel sides and is parallel to the bases.

Front

How do you calculate the length of the midsegment in a trapezoid?

Back

The length of the midsegment is the average of the lengths of the two bases: (Base1 + Base2) / 2.

Front

What is a kite in geometry?

Back

A kite is a quadrilateral with two distinct pairs of adjacent sides that are equal in length.

Front

What is the relationship between the diagonals of a kite?

Back

In a kite, one diagonal bisects the other diagonal at a right angle.

Front

If AC = 36 and ED = 24 in kite ABCD, how do you find AD?

Back

Use the Pythagorean theorem or properties of kites to find AD, which is 30.

Front

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

Back

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

Front

What is a square?

Back

A square is a quadrilateral with all sides equal in length and all angles equal to 90 degrees.

Front

How do you find the measure of an angle in a square?

Back

Each angle in a square measures 90 degrees.

Front

What is the formula for the area of a trapezoid?

Back

Area = (Base1 + Base2) / 2 * Height.
