Exercise 46 Page 528

If a quadrilateral is an isosceles trapezoid, then its diagonals are congruent.

19

Practice makes perfect
We want to find the length of the AC in the given isosceles trapezoid.

We are given that DB= 19. Recall that if a quadrilateral is an isosceles trapezoid, then its diagonals are congruent. Therefore, by the definition of congruent sides, the measures of AC and DB are equal. AC= DB ⇕ AC= 19
