Is the length of the midsegment of a trapezoid equal to the sum of the lengths of the bases?
No, the length of the midsegment of a trapezoid is equal to the average of the lengths of the bases. The sum of the lengths of the bases would typically yield a longer length than the midsegment.
Is a leg of a trapezoid longer than its base?
They could be, but to form a trapezoid, They doesn't have to be. The legs of the trapezoid can be any length, so long as the the bases are parallel to one another.
What is the formula in getting the height of a rectangle?
lenght times height == If it rests on one of the shortest sides , then the altitude is the length of the longer side. If it rest on one of the longer sides, then the altitude is the length of the shortest side. If it is the special case of a square, then any side is an altitude.
How do you prove that the base of a trapezoid is twice the length of a side?
U don't, because it isn't true. Draw a trapezoid. Now lengthen the base and the other parallel edge by any amount u want (the same amount, of course). U now still have a trapezoid, but the base is longer and the sides are the same as they were before.
What is the length and width of a German Shepherd?
The length is generally longer than height but all Shepherds vary and so an exact number isn't exact.
Is the length of the midsegment of a trapezoid equal to the sum of the lengths of the bases?
No, the length of the midsegment of a trapezoid is equal to the average of the lengths of the bases. The sum of the lengths of the bases would typically yield a longer length than the midsegment.
Do men have longer limbs than women?
Limb length is generally a factor of the height of a person. Normal development dictates that the limb length be proportionate to height. As the average height of men is more than that of women, it can be said that men have longer limbs than women.
Is a leg of a trapezoid longer than its base?
They could be, but to form a trapezoid, They doesn't have to be. The legs of the trapezoid can be any length, so long as the the bases are parallel to one another.
What is the average length of female arms?

Does a trapezoid have 4 equal sides?
No, a trapezoid does not have 4 equal sides.
Which way is length?
Length is the horizontal measurement and the vertical one is height. If there are 2 horizontal ones then length is the longer one, and the other one is breadth, or width.
How area of parellogram help find area of trapezoid?
A parallelogram is a degenerate trapezoid: as the longer of the parallel sides of a trapezoid shrinks to the length of the shorter parallel side, the trapezoid becomes a parallelogram. It is truer to say that the area of a trapezoid helps to find the area of a parallelogram: area_trapezoid = mean_average_of_parallel_sides x distance_between_them = 1/2 sum_parallel_side_lengths x distance_between_them When the parallel sides are of equal length this becomes: area = (1/2 x 2 x length_of_parallel_sides) x distance_between_them = length_of_parallel_sides x distance_between_them = area_parallelogram
What is the formula in getting the height of a rectangle?

Does the length or height of your car determine how much gas it uses?
the height more than the length because of the aerodynamic drag, the length more likely to hurt fuel mileage only because of added weight of a longer car
