Exercise 10 Page 449

The parallel sides are called the bases of the trapezoid.

False.
Correction: The leg of a trapezoid is one of the nonparallel sides.

Practice makes perfect

A trapezoid has exactly one pair of parallel sides. These are called the bases of the trapezoid. The other pair of opposite sides of a trapezoid are called the legs.

The statement is false, so we need to correct it.

The leg of a trapezoid is one of the \underline{nonparallel} sides .
