The angles in a trapezoid really affect how it looks! Here’s a simple breakdown of how they work:

1. Types of Trapezoids:

   • Isosceles Trapezoid: The angles at the ends of the base are the same. This gives it a nice, balanced shape.
   • Scalene Trapezoid: The angles can be very different. This makes the trapezoid look special and not regular.

2. Angle Properties:

   • The angles on the same side of the legs (the sides that are not parallel) add up to 180 degrees. So, if one angle is 70 degrees, the other angle on that side will be 110 degrees.

3. Influence on Shape:

   • When the angles change, it affects how tall or flat the trapezoid looks. Sharper angles make the trapezoid tall, while wider angles make it flatter.

In short, the angles are very important in deciding what kind of trapezoid you have and how it looks!
