TRAPEZIUM
(TRAPEZOID)
I have only one set of parallel
sides.
My median is parallel to the
bases and equal to one-half
the sum of the bases.
Isosceles Trapezoid
I have:
- only one set of parallel
sides
- base angles congruent
- legs congruent
- diagonals congruent
- opposite angles

ISOSCELES TRAPEZOID
ISOSCELES TRAPEZIUM IN DAILY LIFE
Baudhāyana, (fl. c. 800 BCE) was
an Indian mathematician, who was most likely
also a priest. He is noted as the author of the
earliest Sulba Sūtra—appendices to the Vedas
giving rules for the construction of altars—
called the Baudhāyana Śulbasûtra, which
contained several important mathematical
results.
He is older than the other famous
mathematician Āpastambha. He belongs to
the Yajurveda school.
He is accredited with calculating the
value of pi before pythagoras, and with
discovering what is now known as
the Pythagorean theorem.
Baudhayana made the following constructions :
1)To draw a straight line at right angles to a given
straight line.
2)To draw a straight line at right angles to a given
straight line to a given point from it .
3)To construct a square having a given side.
4)To construct a rectangle of given sides.
5)To construct a isosceles trapezium of a given altitude,
face and base.
6)To construct a parallelogram having given sides at a
given inclination.
7)To draw a square equivalent to n times a given square.
8)To draw a square equivalent to the sum of two
different squares.
9)To draw a square equivalent to two given triangles.
10)To transform a rectangle into square.
11)To transform a square into rectangle.
12)To transform a square into an rectangle which shall
have an given side .
13)To transform a square or a rectangle into an triangle .
14)To transform a square into an rhombus.
15)To transform a rhombus into an square.
DRAWING ISOSCELES
TRAPEZIUM
• Draw two parallel line segments of
equal length, say AB and CD.
• Take P as midpoint of CD.
• Join PA and PB.
• Draw PM as altitude of ΔPAB.
• Consider a point Q on MP produced.
• With the center at M and radius MQ, draw an
arc of a circle, cutting line CD at points E and
F.
• Join AE and BF.
• AEFB is an isosceles trapezium.

DRAWING ISOSCELES
TRAPEZIUM
Proof :
Δ APM and BPM are congruent.
Also ME = MF = radius of circle.
Therefore, Δ MEP are MFP are congruent.
=> Δ AEP and BFP are congruent.
=> AE = BF
Therefore, trapezium is isosceles with two non
parallel equal sides.
Thank U!!!
