4.  Which of the following statements are true?

(A) If a kite is also a parallelogram, then it must be a rhombus.
(B) If a trapezoid is also a parallelogram, then it must be a rhombus.
(C) If a trapezoid is also a kite, then it must be a parallelogram.
(D) If a rhombus is also a trapezoid, then it must be a kite.

Enter your answer as a list, separated by commas.

 

 

5.  An isosceles trapezoid has side lengths 13,3,13 and 14. What is the perimeter of its Varignon parallelogram?

 

 

6.  ABCD is a parallelogram such that AB=sqrt(3)*BC. Diagonals line AC and line BD intersect at X and Angle ABC=Angle BXC. Find the measure of Angle ACB in degrees.

5.  An isosceles trapezoid has side lengths 13,3,13 and 14. What is the perimeter of its Varignon parallelogram?

 

I didn't actually know what a Varignon parallelogram was.....the parallelogram is formed by joining the midpoints of the sides of the trapezoid...

 

See the image below :

 

EFGH is the Varignon parallelogram

A = (0,0)

B = (14,0)

The height of the trapezoid is  sqrt (13^2 - 5.5^2] = sqrt (138.5)

C = (8.5, sqrt (138.75) )

D = (5.5, sqrt (138.75) )

In this case, the sides of the parallelogram are congruent....so....we only need to multiply the distance from F to H  by 4 to find ts perimeter

 

F =  (5.5/2 , sqrt (138)/2 ) =  (2.75, sqrt (138)/ 2 )

H = (7, 0)

 

So  FH  =    sqrt [  (7 - 2.75)^2 + 138/4 ]   =  sqrt ( 4.25^2 + 34.5) =

 

sqrt ( 18.0625 + 34.5)  =  sqrt ( 56.5625)  =  7.25

 

And the perimeter is 4 times this =  4 * 7.25 = 29 units

 

 

P.S. - Just wonder if it's a coincidence that the sum of the lengths of the three shortest sides of the trapezoid = the perimeter of the parallelogram????

 

cool cool cool
