The perimeter of an isosceles trapezoid is 56 meters. The upper base is 8 meters shorter than the lower base x. Each leg is 6 meters shorter than the lower base. How long is each side of the trapezoid and what is the equation of the perimeter? Lower base:
Upper base:
Each leg:

solution:

we have to construct

∠m nt ≅ ∠p qr

the steps to draw this construction are

step 1: use a compass to draw an arc from point q which intersects the side pq at point a and the side qr at point b.

step 2: draw a segment nt and use the same width of the compass to draw an arc from point n which intersects the segment nt at a point x.

step 3:

step 4: join points n and y using a straightedge.

step 3:

option (d).maintaining the same width of the compass as ab, draw an arc from point x such that it intersects the arc drawn from n in a point y.

to draw   congruent angles , 1. width of compasses while drawing two angles should be same i.e from point at which angle has to be drawn, 2.the distance between the two points where the compass intersects the two sides should be same while drawing any two congruent angles.

hello umm i don't understand your question can you explain it more pls

step-by-step explanation:

the correct answer is the last option
