The length of a midsegment of a trapezoid is the of the lengths of the bases?

It is the average of the bases.


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 the length of a midsegment of a trapezoid the average of the lengths of the bases?

Yes


What is the length of migsegment of a trapezoid with bases length 13 and 23?

The length of the midsegment (or median) of a trapezoid is calculated by taking the average of the lengths of the two bases. For bases of lengths 13 and 23, the midsegment length is ((13 + 23) / 2 = 36 / 2 = 18). Therefore, the length of the midsegment is 18 units.


What is the length of segment KL in the trapezoid?

To determine the length of segment KL in a trapezoid, you need to know the lengths of the bases and the height, or apply the trapezoid midsegment formula if you're looking for the length of the midsegment. The midsegment (which connects the midpoints of the non-parallel sides) can be calculated as the average of the lengths of the two bases: ( KL = \frac{(base_1 + base_2)}{2} ). If you provide the specific measurements of the trapezoid, I can give a more precise answer.


What is the length of the the midsegment of a trapezoid with bases of length 13 and 27?

It is 20 units.


What is the length of the midsegment of a trapezoid with bases of 7 and 15?

It is (7 + 15)/2 = 11 units of length.


The mid segment of a trapezoid is the segment hat connects the midpoint of the legs. True or false?

True. The midsegment of a trapezoid is indeed the segment that connects the midpoints of the non-parallel sides (legs) of the trapezoid. This segment is parallel to the bases and its length is the average of the lengths of the two bases.


What relationship does the mid segment have to the base of a triangle?

A trapezoid midsegment is parallel to the set of parallel lines in a trapezoid and is equal to the average of the lengths of the bases


If a trapezoid has a base measure of 90 and a midsegment length of 85 what is the measure of the other base?

The Trapezoid midsegment conjecture- the midsegment of a trapezoid is parallel to the bases and is equal to the length to the average of the lengths of the bases. This is Some what Algebra....... what you do is take your length 90 and midsegment 85 into a prob like this (90+X)/2=85 times by two on both sides to cancel out the two. after that you end up with 90+X=85 next you have to "isolate" the X by subtracting 90 from both sides you would get 90+X=85 -90 -90 to get X= -5 the other side would be -5 so it doesnt work to check it plug the number back into the equation (90+-5)/2=85


How do you find a mid point of a trapezoid?

To find the midpoint of a trapezoid, first identify the two parallel bases. Measure the lengths of both bases and calculate their midpoints by averaging the coordinates of their endpoints. The midpoint of the trapezoid can then be determined by drawing a line segment connecting these two midpoints, which will be parallel to the bases and represent the trapezoid's midsegment. This midsegment can also be used to find the height or other geometric properties of the trapezoid.


What is the average of the bases of a trapezoid?

The average of the bases of a trapezoid is the median.
