Answer:
The angle measures of the trapezoid consists of two angles of 60º adjacent to the bigger base and two angles of 120º adjacent to the smaller base.
Step-by-step explanation:
A trapezoid is a quadrilateral that is symmetrical and whose bases are of different length and in every quadrilateral the sum of internal angles is equal to 360º. The bigger base has the pair of adjacent angles of least measure, whereas the smaller base has the pair of adjancent angles of greatest measure.
Since the sum of the angles adjacent to bigger base is 120º, the value of each adjacent angle ([tex]\alpha[/tex]) is obtained under the consideration of symmetry:
[tex]2\cdot \alpha = 120^{\circ}[/tex]
[tex]\alpha = 60^{\circ}[/tex]
The sum of the angles adjacent to smaller base is: ([tex]\alpha = 60^{\circ}[/tex])
[tex]2\cdot \alpha + 2\cdot \beta = 360^{\circ}[/tex]
[tex]2\cdot \beta = 360^{\circ} - 2\cdot \alpha[/tex]
[tex]\beta = 180^{\circ}-\alpha[/tex]
[tex]\beta = 180^{\circ} - 60^{\circ}[/tex]
[tex]\beta = 120^{\circ}[/tex]
The angle measures of the trapezoid consists of two angles of 60º adjacent to the bigger base and two angles of 120º adjacent to the smaller base.
