Inner angles

The magnitude of the internal angle at the main vertex C of the isosceles triangle ABC is 72°. The line p, parallel to the base of this triangle, divides the triangle into a trapezoid and a smaller triangle. How big are the inner angles of the trapezoid?

Correct answer:

A =  54 °
B =  54 °
C =  126 °
D =  126 °

Step-by-step explanation:

$$\begin{gathered} \gamma =72\text{ ° } \\ \alpha =\beta \\ \alpha +\beta +\gamma =180\mathrm{°} \\ \alpha +\alpha +\gamma =180\mathrm{°} \\ \alpha ={\displaystyle \frac{180-\gamma }{2}}={\displaystyle \frac{180-72}{2}}=54\text{ ° } \\ \beta =\alpha =54\text{ ° } \\ A=\alpha =54=54\text{°} \end{gathered}$$

$B=\beta =54=54\text{°}$

$$\begin{gathered} C+B=180\mathrm{°} \\ C=180-B=180-54=126\text{°} \end{gathered}$$

$$\begin{gathered} A+D=180\text{ ° } \\ D=C=126=126\text{°} \end{gathered}$$
