Answer to Problem 3PSA

The statementopposite sides are congruent is false.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

An isosceles trapezoidRTPA with sides RT, TP, PA and RA.

Diagonals oftrapezoid RTPA are RP and TA.

  Geometry For Enjoyment And Challenge, Chapter 5.4, Problem 3PSA , additional homework tip  1

In any isosceles trapezoid, two opposite sides (the bases) are parallel, and the two other sides (the legs) are of equal lengths. The diagonals are of equal length. Only legs are congruent but bases are not congruent. Hence, the statement is false.

Answer to Problem 3PSA

The statement diagonals RP and TA bisect the angles is false.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

An isosceles trapezoid RTPA with sides RT, TP, PA and RA.

Diagonals of trapezoid RTPA are RP and TA.

  Geometry For Enjoyment And Challenge, Chapter 5.4, Problem 3PSA , additional homework tip  3

A diagonal doesn’t bisect angles in an isosceles trapezoid. It only happens in a square or a rhombus as there the length and breadth, both are equal.

Answer to Problem 3PSA

The statement diagonals RP and TA bisect each other is false.

Explanation of Solution

Given information:

An isosceles trapezoid RTPA with sides RT, TP, PA and RA.

Diagonals of trapezoid RTPA are RP and TA.

  Geometry For Enjoyment And Challenge, Chapter 5.4, Problem 3PSA , additional homework tip  4

Isosceles trapezium is a trapezium whose non parallel sides are equal. If we have a quadrilateral whose diagonals bisect each other then it happens to be parallelogram. Every parallelogram is a trapezium but every trapezium is not parallelogram.
