    Trapezoids are like the outcasts in the family of Quadrilaterals. Only one pair of parallel sides..and that's about it. Sometimes you have to use the Distance Formula, Midpoint Formula to determine the lengths of a trapezoid on a plane.

    8-6 Trapezoids

    • In the family of Quadrilaterals, trapezoids


    are like the outcasts…

    Only one pair of


    parallel sides…
    …and that’s
    about it…
    Isosceles Trapezoid
    • An Isosceles Trapezoid has:
    • Both pairs of base angles are congruent
    • The diagonals are congruent
    • Both sides are congruent.
    • Isosceles Trapezoids are related to
    isosceles triangles…
    • Trapezoids can have a median
    • The length of the median is ½ the lengths
    of both bases added together.
    EF is a median. What is the length of the
    median?

    • Sometimes you have to use the Distance
    Formula, Midpoint Formula to determine
    the lengths of a trapezoid on a graph.
