Question

Диагонали АС и ВД четырехугольника АВСД пересекаются в точке О. АО=18 см, ОС=12см, ВО=15см, ОД=10см. Докажите, что АВСД - трапеция.

Answer 1

Рассмотрим треугольники АОВ и  COD:

АО : ОС = 18 : 12 = 3 : 2

ВО : OD = 15 : 10 = 3 : 2

∠АОВ = ∠COD  как вертикальные, значит

∠АОВ подобен ∠COD по двум пропорциональным сторонам и углу между ними.

В подобных треугольниках напротив пропорциональных сторон лежат равные углы, значит

∠ОАВ = ∠OCD, а эти углы - накрест лежащие при пересечении прямых АВ и CD секущей АС, значит

АВ║CD.

Так как треугольники подобны с коэффициентом 3:2, то АВ ≠ CD, тогда ABCD не является параллелограммом, т.е. две другие стороны у него не параллельны. Значит ABCD - трапеция.

Answer 2

Given Information:

We are given that the diagonals AC and BD of quadrilateral ABCD intersect at point O. The lengths of the segments are as follows: - AO = 18 cm - OC = 12 cm - BO = 15 cm - OD = 10 cm

Proof that ABCD is a Trapezoid:

To prove that ABCD is a trapezoid, we need to show that one pair of opposite sides is parallel.

Let's consider the diagonals AC and BD. According to the properties of quadrilaterals, if the diagonals of a quadrilateral bisect each other, then the quadrilateral is a parallelogram. In this case, we need to show that the diagonals AC and BD bisect each other.

To prove that the diagonals bisect each other, we can use the property that the sum of the lengths of the segments formed by the intersection of the diagonals is equal.

Let's calculate the lengths of the segments formed by the intersection of the diagonals AC and BD.

Segment AB can be calculated as: AB = AO + OB = 18 cm + 15 cm = 33 cm

Segment CD can be calculated as: CD = CO + OD = 12 cm + 10 cm = 22 cm

Now, let's compare the lengths of the segments AB and CD.

AB = 33 cm CD = 22 cm

Since AB is not equal to CD, it means that the diagonals AC and BD do not bisect each other. Therefore, ABCD is not a parallelogram.

Since ABCD is not a parallelogram, it cannot be a rectangle or a square. The only remaining possibility is that ABCD is a trapezoid.

Hence, we have proved that ABCD is a trapezoid.

Conclusion:

The given quadrilateral ABCD with diagonals AC and BD intersecting at point O is a trapezoid.
