In trapezoid ABCD, sides overline AB and overline CD are parallel, angle A = 2 * angle D, and angle C = 3 * angle B. Find angle A.
Thanks!
I looked this up:
The properties of the trapezoid are as follows:
The bases are parallel by definition.
Each lower base angle is supplementary to the upper base angle on the same side.
SO angle a + angle d = 180
angle a = 2d substitute
2d +d = 180 d= 60
a= 2d = 120 degrees This assumes your trapezoid is labeled A B
D C
