Step 1
Since BC is parallel to AD, we can use the fact that opposite sides of a trapezoid are equal in length. Therefore, BC = AD = 530m. Show more…

An isosceles trapezoidal lot ABCD has an altitude of 80 m. and sides BC parallel to AD. The area of the lot is 5000 ?2. a) If the two bases have the ratio of 3:7, compute the perimeter of the lot; b) Compute the dividing line if the trapezoidal lot is divided into parts in the ratio of 1 to 3 by a line parallel to sides BC and AD, and c) Find the area of the largest part.
