The measurements are:
b₁ = 8.4 inches; b₂ = 14 inches; leg₁ = 2.8 inches; leg₂ = 2.8 inches
Let x = length of base and leg
The formula for perimeter of isosceles trapezoid is P = b₁ + b₂ + 2(leg)
Where: b = base
P = b₁ + b₂ + 2(leg)
28 = 3x + 5x + 2(x)
28 = 8x + 2x
28/10 = 10x/10
2.8 = x
Now, substitute the values:
P = b₁ + b₂ + 2(leg)
28 = 3(2.8) + 5(2.8) + 2(2.8)
28 = 8.4 + 14 + 5.6
28 = 28
Hence the measurements are:
b₁ = 8.4 inches; b₂ = 14 inches; leg₁ = 2.8 inches; leg₂ = 2.8 inches
Answer:
a = 16
w = 125
x = 120
y = 55
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>FINDING 'a'</u>
31 = a + 46 / 2
62 = a + 46
16 = a
<u>FINDING 'w'</u>
* This section looks Non-Isosceles trapezoid so I will be following the rule according it
w + 55 = 180
w = 125
<u>FINDING 'y'</u>
y = 55
- Because of corresponding angles
<u>FINDING 'x'</u>
* In this case it looks like we are still dealing w/ an non-isosceles trapezoid.
x + 60 = 180
x = 120
