Is the trapezoid isosceles?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i dont know

Directrix (directrix):

Would you check these coordinates by reading them from the graph: A(0,3); B(2,3); C(4,-1) and D(-2,-1)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

Directrix (directrix):

We will use those points to calculate so I hope we read the coordinates correctly. :)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

okay

Directrix (directrix):

Here is where we are: AB = 2; BC = Sqrt(20); CD = 6; and AD = Sqrt(20

Directrix (directrix):

It is an isosceles trapezoid.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok

Directrix (directrix):

Now, we have to find the coordinates of the midpoints of each of the 4 sides.
