An isosceles trapezoid abcd has bases ad = 17cm, bc = 5cm, and leg ab = 10 cm. a line is drawn through vertex b so that it bisects diagonal ac and intersect ad at point m. find the area of δbdm. what is the area of abcd?

Four airplanes carrying a total of 400 passengersarrive at the detroit airport. the airplanes carry, respectively,50, 80, 110, and 160 passengers.a) one of the 400 passengers is selected uniformly at random.let x denote the number of passengers that were on theairplane carrying the randomly selected passenger. find var(x)for x as given in the problemb) one of the 4 airplane drivers is also selected uniformly atrandom. let y denote the number of passengers on the chosen driver’s airplane. find var(y) for y as given in the problem

Can you me with this question? i'll reward *30 points i just need with this one question so that i could solve the others. * edit: i originally set up the question to reward 30 points, but for some reason i can only reward 15. if you don't get 30, then i'm sorry. i'm still kind of new to this site

Given: ab ≅ cd and ad ≅ bc prove: abcd is a parallelogram. statements reasons 1. ab ≅ cd; ad ≅ bc 1. given 2. ac ≅ ac 2. reflexive property 3. △adc ≅ △cba 3. ? 4. ∠dac ≅ ∠bca; ∠acd ≅ ∠cab 4. cpctc 5. ∠dac and ∠bca are alt. int. ∠s; ∠acd and ∠cab are alt. int. ∠s 5. definition of alternate interior angles 6. ab ∥ cd; ad ∥ bc 6. converse of the alternate interior angles theorem 7. abcd is a parallelogram 7. definition of parallelogram what is the missing reason in step 3? triangle angle sum theorem sas congruency theorem sss congruency theorem cpctc
