Trapezoid ABCD has vertices A (2, 4), B (5, 4), C (7, 1), and D (0, 1). What are the lengths of the sides AD and BC?

Trapezoid ABCD has vertices A 2 4 B 5 4 C 7 1 and D 0 1 What are the lengths of the sides AD and BC class=

Respuesta :

Answer:

  √13 ≈ 3.61

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance formula is applicable.

  d = √((x2-x1)² +(y2-y1)²)

  AD = √((0-2)² +(1-4)²) = √(4+9) = √13

  AD ≈ 3.605513 ≈ 3.61

___

The trapezoid is isosceles, so AD and BC are the same length, 3.61.
