Will give medal, fan, and testimony! Find the value of x and the length of each segment. Record your answers in the table. Show your work for partial credit.
@Whitemonsterbunny17 Are you able to help me out on this one?
Quad RXZT is a trapezoid. Segment SY is the median because it joins the midpoints of the two non-parallel sides of the trapezoid.
The median has measure: SY = (1/2) * (RX + TZ)
I looked at the diagram again. Something is missing. We are asked to find x and there is no x on the diagram. There are no numbers on the diagram. Please check your text and post all information about this problem.
@Directrix X is right up in the right hand corner of the diagram? Im confused?
You are looking at point X of the trapezoid. The chart asks about the value of x (lower case).
There is nothing I can do to help without all the information for the problem.
@Directrix There is only one X on the trapezoid and there is one X on the chart. I would assume that means it wants you to find X on the trapezoid then the blank next to the X on the chart would be where you would write your answer for X?
@Directrix Nevermind I see what you mean. Sorry for wasting your time.
There has to be more information about the problem in your text. If only, you would look and post it....
@Directrix I appreciate your willingness to help but there's nothing I can do. Im going to have to wait till tomorrow to tell my teacher the document didn't open right on my laptop.
Okay. Post the new diagram and we'll work together to give the problem another try. @bobbyjack1200
