Question

An isosceles trapezoid was broken into a rectangle and

two triangles. What are the base and height of one of
the triangles?
O base = 8 m, height = 6 m
O base = 6 m; height = 4 m
O base = 2 m; height = 6 m
O base = 4 m; height = 2 m
8 m

Answer 1

the height of the triangles is 6 and the base is 2

Explanation:

When breaking it up into the rectangle and two triangles you automatically know a couple of things. First the height is 6 as it was given to you by the picture. We also know that the top of the rectangle is 4 and the sides are 6. The whole trapezoid's base is 8 so we subtract the 4 from it to get 4 and divide that by 2 for the two triangles to get that the height of the triangles is 6 and the base is 2.

Answer 2

I think the answer is base = 2 m, height = 6
