Your Name (Optional)

Q1 Beginner 1 pts

What is the defining characteristic of a trapezoid? Video Reference:
"A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one pair of parallel sides and one pair of non-parallel sides...."

Timestamp: 0:10

Has four sides Has two parallel sides Has four right angles Has two equal sides

Q2 Beginner 1 pts

What is the name of the non-parallel sides of a trapezoid? Video Reference:
"The nonparallel sides are called legs...."

Timestamp: 0:30

Bases Legs Diagonals Vertices

Q3 Intermediate 2 pts

True or False: The sum of the interior angles of a trapezoid is 360 degrees. Video Reference:
"Because a trapezoid is a closed figure it has four corners which are called vertices. The angles on ..."

Timestamp: 0:40

True

False

Q4 Intermediate 2 pts

Which of the following are characteristics of an isosceles trapezoid? Video Reference:
"An isosceles trapezoid has two equal legs Which results in the diagonals are equal length And the ba..."

Timestamp: 0:55

Select all correct answers

Two equal legs Diagonals are equal length Base angles are congruent All of the above

Q5 Advanced 3 pts

What is the formula for finding the area of a trapezoid? Video Reference:
"The area of a trapezoid by taking ½ base 1 + base 2 times the height..."

Timestamp: 1:05

Area = (base 1 + base 2) * height Area = 1/2 * (base 1 + base 2) * height Area = base 1 * base 2 * height Area = (base 1 * base 2) / height

Q6 Intermediate 2 pts

True or False: The median of a trapezoid is parallel to the bases and equal to half the sum of the base lengths. Video Reference:
"The median is parallel to bases and equals half the length of the two bases..."

Timestamp: 0:50

True

False

Q7 Intermediate 2 pts

Which of the following are types of trapezoids? Video Reference:
"Two types of trapezoid A right trapezoid has two right angles that are next to each other. This is c..."

Timestamp: 1:00

Select all correct answers

Right trapezoid Isosceles trapezoid Parallelogram All of the above

Q8 Advanced 3 pts

What is the formula for finding the perimeter of a trapezoid? Video Reference:
"In order to find the perimeter just add the length of the four sides A + B +C + D..."

Timestamp: 1:10

Perimeter = A + B + C + D Perimeter = (base 1 + base 2) * 2 Perimeter = (base 1 + base 2 + leg 1 + leg 2) Perimeter = 1/2 * (base 1 + base 2) * height
