Question
in the isosceles trapezoid below,
$x = ?^{circ}$
$5x + 15^{circ}$
$7x - 11^{circ}$
Step1: Set up the equation
In an isosceles trapezoid, base angles are equal. So, \(5x + 15=7x - 11\).
Step2: Solve for \(x\)
Subtract \(5x\) from both sides: \(15 = 2x-11\).
Add \(11\) to both sides: \(26 = 2x\).
Divide both sides by \(2\): \(x = 13\).
