Trapezoid
Properties and formulas for geometric calculations
Overview
A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one pair of opposite sides parallel. These are called the bases. The non-parallel sides are called legs.
- The height \(h\) is the perpendicular distance between the bases
- Adjacent interior angles on each leg sum to 180°
- The median \(m\) is parallel to the bases
- \(\displaystyle m = \frac{a+c}{2}\)
