Base angles of an isosceles trapezoid are congruent. There are two sets of these. The angle with measure y and the angle with measure 48 are one pair of these base angles. As said, they are congruent. So, what is the value of y?

Directrix (directrix):

Here's a diagram marked up with the two pairs of congruent base angles shown.

@Addicto_ So, what is the value of y?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so would it start out as 48 + y

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Directrix (directrix):

Yes, that is correct.

OpenStudy (anonymous):
