TWVU is a trapezoid with midsgment FG find the value of x please help

Find each measure.

1. 

SOLUTION:  

The trapezoid ABCD is an isosceles trapezoid. So,

each pair of base angles is congruent. Therefore,

ANSWER:  

101

2. WT, if ZX = 20 and TY = 15

SOLUTION:  

The trapezoid WXYZ is an isosceles trapezoid. So, the

diagonals are congruent. Therefore, WY = ZX.

WT + TY = ZX

WT + 15 = 20

WT = 5

ANSWER:  

5

COORDINATE GEOMETRY Quadrilateral

ABCD has vertices A(–4, –1), B(–2, 3), C(3, 3),

and D(5, –1).

3. Verify that ABCD is a trapezoid.

SOLUTION:  

First graph the points on a coordinate grid and draw

the trapezoid.

Use the slope formula to find the slope of the sides of

the trapezoid.

The slopes of exactly one pair of opposite sides are

equal. So, they are parallel. Therefore, the

quadrilateral ABCD is a trapezoid.

ANSWER:  

ABCD is a trapezoid.

4. Determine whether ABCD is an isosceles trapezoid.

Explain.

SOLUTION:  

Refer to the graph of the trapezoid.

Use the slope formula to find the slope of the sides of

the quadrilateral.

The slopes of exactly one pair of opposite sides are

equal. So, they are parallel. Therefore, the

quadrilateral ABCD is a trapezoid.

Use the Distance Formula to find the lengths of the

legs of the trapezoid.

The lengths of the legs are equal. Therefore, ABCD

is an isosceles trapezoid.

ANSWER:  

isosceles;

5. GRIDDED REPSONSE In the figure, is the

midsegment of trapezoid TWRV. Determine the value

of x.

SOLUTION:  

By the Trapezoid Midsegment Theorem, the

midsegment of a trapezoid is parallel to each base

and its measure is one half the sum of the lengths of

the bases.

 are the bases and   is the 

midsegment. So,

Solve for x.

16 = 14.8 + x

1.2 = x

ANSWER:  

1.2
