Answer:

Explanation:

The typical isosceles trapezoid will have a uniform width, measured vertically, but two ends that are not square (not perpendicular to the x-axis. The two sloping ends are congruent (their slopes have exactly the same slope.

The same could be said of an isosceles trapezoid that is vertical; the sloping ends have the same slope.

2 non-parallel, congruent sides

Explanation:
