Question

TRAP is an isosceles trapezoid, and XY is its median. Find the length of TP.

Answer 1

Here's a Screenshot!

Answer 2

median is the average of two lengths, TP and RA...\[XY=\frac{TP+RA}{2}\]

Answer 3

just plug-in... you can solve it...

Answer 4

yeha im stupid lol

Answer 5

ok if we manipulate the equation i gave and solve for TP...\[TP=2XY-RA\]hope this will simplify your solution...

Answer 6

tp = 2xy - ra do i plugin the numbers into that equation?

Answer 7

yup...

Answer 8

what do i do with the 2? TP = 48.43 - 77.2 I failed geometry for a reason. :P

Answer 9

ok let us do it...
\[TP=2(48.43)-77.2=96.86-77.2=19.66\]

Answer 10

hope u got it...@ObamaBinLlama
