The height of an isosceles trapezoid drawn from the top with a smaller base divides the larger base into segments 11 and 17. Find the length of the smaller base.
The height of the trapezoid divided the larger side into 11 and 17 cm segments.Since the trapezoid is isosceles, drawing the height from another angle on the smaller side, we will see that the 17 cm segment includes the length of the smaller side and the 11 cm segment.
That is: 17-11 = 6 cm – the length of the smaller side of the trapezoid.
Answer: 6 cm
