L3 Geometry Class 6

The document outlines properties of various quadrilaterals and polygons, including trapezoids, isosceles trapezoids, parallelograms, rhombuses, and the sum of interior and exterior angles in polygons. It also includes homework problems related to geometry concepts, such as calculating areas, proving relationships in shapes, and deriving formulas. The problems require rough diagrams and emphasize understanding geometric properties without the use of calculators.

Level 3: Geometry Class 6


1. Quadrilateral properties
(a) Trapezoid
i. The median of a trapezoid is parallel to the bases of a trapezoid, and equal in length to the average
of the lengths of the bases.
ii. The area of a trapezoid equals the height of the trapezoid times the length of the median of the
trapezoid.
(b) Isosceles trapezoid
i. The base angles come in two pairs of equal angles.
ii. The legs are equal.
iii. The diagonals are equal.
(c) Parallelogram
i. The opposite sides are equal
ii. The opposite angles are equal
iii. The diagonals bisect each other.
(d) Rhombus
i. Every rhombus is a parallelogram. Therefore, everything that is true about parallelogram is true
about rhombus.
ii. The diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular.
iii. The area of a rhombus is half the product of its diagonals.
2. Polygon Properties
(a) The measures of the interior angles have a sum of (n − 2)(180◦ )
(b) The measures of the exterior angles have a sum of 360◦ .
