The coordintes of the midpoint re the verges of the coordintes of the endpoints: M ( 5, 0) =,, ; L (3, 4) = How does the slope of the midsegment relte to the slopes of the prllel sides of the trpezoid? The slope of the midsegment is 1, which is the sme s the slopes of the bses. 2 Therefore the midsegment is prllel to the bses. 8.

In n isosceles trpezoid, the two pirs of bse ngles re congruent. (The two bse ngles from the originl isosceles tringle re congruent; the other two ngles re supplementry to the originl two bse ngles, nd must lso be congruent to ech other.) In n isosceles trpezoid, the non-prllel sides re congruent. (Using 2 s n exmple, the bse ngles re congruent nd congruent to the corresponding bse ngles of QI. Therefore, QI is isosceles nd QI Q. Since QS QO, the congruent sides of QSO, then by subtrction, IS O). The midsegment of trpezoid is the segment connecting the midpoints of the nonprllel sides. The midsegment of trpezoid is prllel to the bses. Its length is the verge of the lengths of the two bses. Frequently the bses of trpezoid re designted by the vribles b 1 nd b 2.
