Trapezoid Properties and Midsegment Review

Practice vocabulary flashcards covering trapezoid angle relationships and midsegment calculations from the lecture.

Midsegment Formula of a Trapezoid

The mathematical expression $M = \frac{1}{2}(B_1 + B_2)$ used to determine the midsegment $M$ of a trapezoid having bases $B_1$ and $B_2$.

Midsegment of an $8\text{ Meter}$ and $14\text{ Meter}$ Trapezoid

A segment measuring $11\text{ meters}$, calculated from a trapezoidal frame with base lengths of $8\text{ meters}$ and $14\text{ meters}$.

Consecutive Angles along a Trapezoid Leg

In trapezoid $ABCD$ where AB \trans \text{parallel to } CD ($AB \text{ // } CD$), $\angle A$ and $\angle D$ are supplementary because they are same-side interior angles formed by the parallel bases and transversal leg $AD$.

Same-Side Interior Angles in a Trapezoid

Angles located on the same side of a transversal leg between two parallel bases that add up to make the angles supplementary.
