sry it took a while, the drawing box wouldn't stay still

moonlitfate · Answer

No problem; I hate when the box goes spastic. All right.  Geometry isn't  my strong area, but lemme see if I can help you. :)

anonymous · Answer

btw, that triangle should look equilateral, its just my drawing

moonlitfate · Answer

@LemonLeaf -- if you can solve this, feel free, my geometry skills are a bit rusty.

moonlitfate · Answer

Ah, okay!

i have less than 10 mins left :/

anonymous · Answer

OK, here we go.

MR=NO                          isosceles trapezoid
MP=NO                          paralellogram
triangle MPR isoceles       definition
angle P=angle R              isosceles triangle
angle RMP = 56              sum of angles in triangle 180

Does that make sense?

anonymous · Answer

yea

anonymous · Answer

Do math every day.

anonymous · Answer

but like theres no actual *work* right?

anonymous · Answer

oh nevermind i totally get it noww!!

anonymous · Answer

Back when dinosaurs ruled the earth, what I did was called a two-column proof, and was considered "work."

moonlitfate · Answer

It looks like @AnimalAin just did one of did a proof. :p

anonymous · Answer

moonlitfate · Answer

I was never good at proofs or geometry. D:
