Properties of Non-Isosceles Trapezoids:

NON-ISOSCELES • Only ONE pair of opposite sides are parallel.

Trapezoids • Consecutive angles between parallel lines

are supplementary.

Isosceles trapezoids have the same properties as

non-isosceles trapezoids, plus these:
ISOSCELES • Non-parallel sides (legs) are congruent.
Trapezoids •
•
Diagonals are congruent.
Base angles are congruent.
• Opposite angles are supplementary.

Directions: Find each missing value on the trapezoids below.
