Question

list the number of: • pairs of parallel sides • equal sides

Explanation:

Step1: Analyze the figure (a trapezoid)

A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with at least one pair of parallel sides. In an isosceles trapezoid (the figure here appears to be isosceles), the non - parallel sides are equal.

• For pairs of parallel sides: By the definition of a trapezoid, there is 1 pair of parallel sides (the two bases).
• For equal sides: In an isosceles trapezoid, the two non - parallel sides (the legs) are equal, so there is 1 pair of equal sides.

Answer:

• Pairs of parallel sides: 1
• Pairs of equal sides: 1
