Question

In trapezoid EFGH, EF ≅ HG. What is the measure of the angle between Elm Street and Pine Avenue?

Answer 1

One property of a trapezoid tells us that opposite angles add up to 180°.

The angle given 108° is opposite to the angle we are looking for (the angle between Elm St. and Pine Ave.). If this angle is x, we can write,

$x+108=180\\x=180-108\\x=72$ degrees.

Answer choice B is correct.

ANSWER: B

Answer 2

Angle E is 72 degrees
