1. Lesson 2.17: Trapezoid & Kites 1 Lesson 6-5 Trapezoids and Kites

2. Lesson 2.17: Trapezoid & Kites 2 Trapezoid A quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides. Definition: Base Leg An Isosceles trapezoid is a trapezoid with congruent legs. Trapezoid The parallel sides are called bases and the non-parallel sides are called legs. Isosceles trapezoid

3. Lesson 2.17: Trapezoid & Kites 3 Properties of Isosceles Trapezoid 2. The diagonals of an isosceles trapezoid are congruent. 1. Both pairs of base angles of an isosceles trapezoid are congruent. A B C D Base Angles

4. Lesson 2.17: Trapezoid & Kites 4 The median of a trapezoid is the segment that joins the midpoints of the legs. The median of a trapezoid is parallel to the bases, and its measure is one-half the sum of the measures of the bases. Median Median of a Trapezoid

5. Find the length of the median. Find the value of x.
