Answer:
Yes the information i.e. AT ║ CS and diagonals AS = CT are sufficient to prove that CATS is an isosceles trapezoid.
CATS is an isosceles trapezoid. (Proved)
Step-by-step explanation:
Yes the information i.e. AT ║ CS and diagonals AS = CT are sufficient to prove that CATS is an isosceles trapezoid.
Proof :
Taking Δ CAT and Δ STA,
(i) CT = AS (Given)
(ii) AT is the common side and
(iii) ∠ ACT = ∠ TSA
{Since AT ║ CS and the angles are obtained from the same base AT}
Therefore, by the criteria Side-Side-Angle i.e. SSA, we can say Δ CAT ≅ Δ STA.
Hence, AC = ST {Corresponding sides}
Therefore, CATS is an isosceles trapezoid. (Proved)
