Question

In isosceles trapezoid JKLM, find the measure of JK.

  1. 17 cm
  2. 25 cm
  3. 34 cm
  4. 9 cm

hintHint:

An isosceles trapezium is a trapezium in which the non-parallel sides are equal in measure. In other words, the bases are parallel and the legs are equal in measure.

The correct answer is: 17 cm



    An isosceles trapezium is a trapezium in which the non-parallel sides are equal in measure. In other words, the bases are parallel and the legs are equal in measure.
    The non-parallel sides of an isosceles trapezoid are equal.
    So, JK = ML = 17 cm
    Thus, the measure of JK is 17cm.
