What are all the shapes my quadrilateral Must be and could be if it has a pair of equal sides and a pair of parallel sides

If the parallel sides are the same length, then the figure must be a parallelogram. You can prove this by dividing the parallelogram into two triangles, and then using SAS (side angle side) to prove the triangles congruent, which leads to you showing the corresponding angles are the same measure, therefore the other set of sides must be parallel as well.

If the non parallel sides are the same length, then you have an isosceles trapezoid. A trapezoid is any figure with exactly one pair of parallel sides. An isosceles trapezoid is one where the non-parallel sides are the same length. The non-parallel sides are sometimes considered the legs of the trapezoid (and the parallel sides are the bases).

If you have two adjacent sides that are same length, and you have one set of parallel sides, then you could have a trapezoid (not isosceles but just a more generalized trapezoid)

QveST [7]

Answer:

52.74% probability that a randomly selected airfare between these two cities will be between $325 and $425

Step-by-step explanation:

Problems of normally distributed samples are solved using the z-score formula.

In a set with mean $\mu$ and standard deviation $\sigma$ , the zscore of a measure X is given by:

$Z = \frac{X - \mu}{\sigma}$

The Z-score measures how many standard deviations the measure is from the mean. After finding the Z-score, we look at the z-score table and find the p-value associated with this z-score. This p-value is the probability that the value of the measure is smaller than X, that is, the percentile of X. Subtracting 1 by the pvalue, we get the probability that the value of the measure is greater than X.

In this question, we have that:

$\mu = 387.20, \sigma = 68.50$
