A carpenter cuts the corners of a rectangle to make the trapezoid shown.
1 answer:
The value of x in the trapezoid is 11.
<h3>Properties of an isosceles trapezoid</h3>- The base angles are the same
- The sum of opposite angles is 180° or supplementary.
- The diagonals are the same in length.
Therefore, the angle 9x and 7x + 4 are supplementary.
Hence,
9x + 7x + 4 = 180
16x + 4 = 180
16x = 180 - 4
16x = 176
x = 176 / 16
x = 11
