Question

find each measure.

  1. ( mangle d )
  1. ( mangle l )

for trapezoid ( hjkl ), ( m ) and ( n ) are the midpoints of the legs.

  1. if ( hj = 32 ) and ( lk = 60 ), find ( mn ).

exercises
if ( ghjk ) is a kite, find each measure.

  1. find ( mangle jrk ).
  2. if ( rj = 3 ) and ( rk = 10 ), find ( jk ).
  3. if ( mangle ghj = 90 ) and ( mangle gkj = 110 ), find ( mangle hgk ).

Explanation:

Response
Problem 1: \( m\angle D \) (Trapezoid \(ABCD\))

Step 1: Identify Trapezoid Property

In an isosceles trapezoid (or any trapezoid with \(AB \parallel CD\)), consecutive angles between the bases are supplementary. So \( \angle A + \angle D = 180^\circ \) (since \(AB \parallel CD\) and \(AD\) is a leg).

Step 2: Calculate \( m\angle D \)

Given \( m\angle A = 125^\circ \), we use \( m\angle D = 180^\circ - m\angle A \).
\( m\angle D = 180^\circ - 125^\circ = 55^\circ \).

Step 1: Identify Kite Property

In a kite, one pair of opposite angles (between the unequal sides) are equal, and consecutive angles between the equal sides are supplementary. Here, \(JK = JM = 5\) and \(KL = ML\) (implied by markings), so \( \angle K + \angle L = 180^\circ \) (consecutive angles between the equal sides).

Step 2: Calculate \( m\angle L \)

Given \( m\angle K = 40^\circ \), we use \( m\angle L = 180^\circ - m\angle K \).
\( m\angle L = 180^\circ - 40^\circ = 140^\circ \).

Step 1: Recall Trapezoid Midsegment Formula

The midsegment (\(MN\)) of a trapezoid is the average of the two bases: \( MN = \frac{HJ + LK}{2} \).

Step 2: Substitute Values

Given \( HJ = 32 \) and \( LK = 60 \), substitute into the formula:
\( MN = \frac{32 + 60}{2} = \frac{92}{2} = 46 \).

Answer:

\( 55^\circ \)

Problem 2: \( m\angle L \) (Kite \(JKLM\))
