either pair of base angles of an isosceles trapzoid ______forms a pair congruent angles how it (always)(never) or sometimes which one will go on the dot line

sorry idk @big1174

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

|dw:1417206632439:dw| in an isosceles triangle you have the parallel sides that you call bases. Base angles share a base.

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

So... if |dw:1417207013274:dw| Made a typo on the labeling. In an isosceles trapezoid, the "legs" of the trapezoid are the non parallel sides, so if those are congruent, or equal, then

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

\(\angle A =\angle D\) and \(\angle B = \angle C\)

OpenStudy (jhannybean):

So again, if \(\angle A\) and \(\angle D\) are base angles, meaning they share he same base (parallel side), as well as \(\angle C \) and \(\angle B\) base angles, then these will always form congruent angles.
