How do I use slope to prove that a trapezoid bases are parallel?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

If you can show that the slopes of the two bases are equal, then you will have shown that the two bases are parallel This is because all parallel lines have equal slopes

How do I find the slopes of the bases?

jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):

each line segment is formed by 2 points you can use the slope formula m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) to find the slopes
