What else can I help you with?
How could you make a trapezoid out of a rectangle in one cut?
fold it in half and cut it the corners
What is a trapezoid cut in half?
2 triangels
What shape do you get when you cut a trapaziod in half?
Depending upon exactly where the cut is made (and the shape/type of the original trapezoid), a trapezoid cut into two pieces [of equal area] can result in: 1: two trapezoids 2: a trapezoid and a parallelogram 3: a trapezoid and a [general] quadrilateral 4: a parallelogram and a triangle 5: two triangles.
Can a cut be made between two parallel sides of an isosceles trapezoid to make two isosceles trapezoids?
No, a cut cannot be made between two parallel sides of an isosceles trapezoid to create two isosceles trapezoids. An isosceles trapezoid has only one pair of parallel sides, so cutting between them would result in two separate shapes, neither of which would be an isosceles trapezoid. The resulting shapes would likely be irregular quadrilaterals or triangles, depending on the location of the cut.
How is a trapezoid an isosceles?
When the top section of an isosceles triangle is cut away parallel to its base it then becomes an isosceles trapezoid.
One of the two nonparallel sides of the trapezoid?
The leg of a trapezoid is one of the two nonparallel sides of the trapezoid. However, the base of a trapezoid is of the two parallel sides of the trapezoid.
How do you find the area of a trapezoid using the area of a triangle?
You have to cut the trapezoid into three shapes. The three shapes will be two triangles and one rectangle or square. You have to find the area of these three shapes and then add all of the three areas up to find the area of the trapezoid.
What shape is a trapezoid cut in half?
That depends where the cut is made if it's from vertex to vertex it will make 2 triangles otherwise it will make 2 quadrilaterals
How many lines of symmetry does an isosceles trapezoid have?
There is only one in a trapazoid because if you look at it there is only one line that can be cut to have both sides equal
Is every trapezoid a trapezoid?
Yes it is. The reason you decide to call it a trapezoid is because it is a trapezoid,and if it were not one, you would not call it one. So, since it has the label "trapezoid"painted on it when you meet it, and we have just said that in order to earn thatlabel it must be a trapezoid, we may conclude that if it is known to be a trapezoid,then it must ipso facto be a trapezoid.
How can you combine a parallelogram and a trapezoid?
A trapezoid is pretty much just a parallelogram with a little triangle cut off, so if you think of that you can put them together
Is there a trapezoid with right angle?
Yes. Imagine a right-angled triangle with one of its legs forming the base. Cut of the apex (the top angle) using a line parallel to the base. You will then have a trapezoid with a right angle. In fact, since a trapezoid contains a pair of parallel lines, it has two pairs of supplementary angles (add up to 180 deg). So a trapezoid cannot have only one right angle. If there is one, there must be 2 (or 4).
