Is it possible for opposite angles in a trapezoid to be congruent? Sometimes? Always? Never?
I'd say never, or else it would be a square.
Do you know which property states that? I'm pretty confused on all of this
I could be wrong though.
Sometimes. A parallelogram is a particular kind of trapezoid, which has opposite angles congruent. (So is the square)
A trapezoid is not a parallelogram.
A parallelogram is NOT a trapezoid. A trapezoid, by definition, is a quadrilateral with EXACTLY one pair of parallel sides. Therefore, a parallelogram which, by definition, has two pair of parallel sides is NOT a special trapezoid!!!
Therefore the previous answer is incorrect.
Think about it, even if it's an irregular trapezoid, they wouldn't be congruent. Draw them out, it helps. |dw:1334420579424:dw|
