Does an isosceles trapezoid have a right angle?

no


What is half of an isosceles triangle?

Depending how you halve it can be a right angle triangle or an isosceles trapezoid


What is the total interior angle of an isosceles trapezoid?

The 4 interior angles of any trapezoid, including those that are isosceles, always add up to 360 degrees


If a trapezoid has a one hundred degree angle and a sixty-five degree angle and a seventy-five degree angle what is the measure of the fourth angle?

This is not a trapezoid. For all trapezoids (in plane Geometry), the two sets of side angles must be supplementary, or add to 180. No two angles given are supplementary.

Is it true a trapezoid has both pairs of opposite angle that are congruent?

No only if its in the form of an isosceles trapezoid then its base angles will be the same but opposite angles are normally different.


How do you draw a trapezoid?

Draw two parallel lines of unequal length, and connect their end points. If you have a right angle, it is a right trapezoid. If the non-parallel sides are equal in length, it is an isosceles trapezoid.
