1. Problem Description
We are given a trapezoid . We are given that and . We need to find the value of such that the trapezoid is isosceles.
2. Solution Steps
In an isosceles trapezoid, the base angles are equal. In trapezoid , if and are the parallel sides, then and are adjacent angles on the same side of the transversal . The sum of these two angles is .
Therefore, we have the equation:
In an isosceles trapezoid, the base angles are equal. If is an isosceles trapezoid, then the angles on the bases are equal.
So
Also, if the non-parallel sides are the same, then the angles are equal. Therefore, or .
In an isosceles trapezoid with bases and , we have . Thus,
