There is no combination of trapezoids which can form a triangle.
well not exactly, if you have three " isoceles like trapezoid", then you can, provided, you are allowed to overlap.
you should be able to figure it out now....
What if the triangle was equilateral and the trapezoids were isoceles?
You wouldn't need the trapezoids to overlap.
Use the longer 'bottom' edge of each trapezoid and the 'left' edge of the next trapezoid to make up the edge of the triangle. The shorter 'top' edge of the trapezoids touch the 'right' edge of the next trapezoid in the center of the triangle.
Let's assume the triangle has points A, B, and C. Method 1 (3 lines) Draw two lines across the triangle parallel to line segment AB. Now you have two trapezoids and one triangle. Draw another line from C to the any point on the closest of the two lines you just drew, splitting the triangle into two more triangles. Method 2 (2 lines) Draw one line across the triangle parallel to line segment AB. Now you have one trapezoid and one triangle. Draw a second line that passes through C and is perpendicular to AB, splitting the trapezoid into two trapezoids and the triangle into 2 triangles. Method 3 (3 lines) Draw one line from point C to any point on line segment AB. Then draw a line parallel to AC and one parallel to BC, but don't let them cross the line you just drew.
yes, it makes an isosceles triangle
No
It could be two trapezoids, or a triangle and a quadrilateral. It all depends on where the cut is made.
It seems that if you can make 1, then you can make 3 .
No because a trapezoid has 4 sides and a triangle has three if a trapezoid had three then it would be a triangle. If you had 3 trapezoids you could make a triangle!
A triangle cannot be formed by any number of trapezoids. Every time a trapezoid is stretched across one side of a triangle, a smaller triangle similar to the first is formed by the part not covered by the trapezoid. Unless... the triangle was equilateral and the trapezoids were isoceles. You could fill the triangle with 3 trapezoids as follows: Use the longer 'bottom' edge of each trapezoid and the 'left' edge of the next trapezoid to make up the edge of the triangle. The shorter 'top' edge of the trapezoids touch the 'right' edge of the next trapezoid in the center of the triangle.
No, trapezoids are quadrilaterals, they have 4 sides. Triangles have 3 sides.
You basicly combine a triangle with a square.. Triangle on top and square on bottom..
Sudan.
A rhombus is a 4 sided quadrilateral
no because simply the triangle means 3 angles.(tri - 3) so you make 3 angle out of lets say 4 angles no because a triangle has to be 3 ANGLES,
3, 5, 5 does not make a right angle triangle but they can make an isosceles triangle Correct. Try 3,4,5. That will be a right triangle. 3x3 plus 4x4 = 5x5
No trapezoids are parallelograms, and no parallelograms are trapezoids.
No trapezoids are parallelograms, and no parallelograms are trapezoids.
No trapezoids are parallelograms, and no parallelograms are trapezoids.
There are isosceles trapezoids which are sometimes called regular trapezoids.
