Question

given only the information in the image, what is the best description of quadrilateral clap? cl||pa m∠a = 87° m∠p = 63° not enough information to decide trapezoid isosceles trapezoid not a trapezoid

Explanation:

Step1: Recall trapezoid definition

A trapezoid has one pair of parallel sides.

Step2: Identify parallel sides

Given $\overline{CL}\parallel\overline{PA}$.

Step3: Determine the type

Since there is one - pair of parallel sides, it is a trapezoid. And we don't have enough information to determine if it is an isosceles trapezoid (no information about non - parallel sides or base - angle relationships).

Answer:

Trapezoid
