A GIFT from ME to YOU!
Can you prove the following? It might come in handy sometime soon.
Setup Sketch:
Draw isosceles trapezoid ABCD starting with vertex A in the lower left and label B-C-D counter-clockwise.
Draw a line segment from vertext D that is congruent to seg-AD to a point E on seg-AB.
Proof:
Given: ABCD is an isosceles trapezoid and seg-AE cong seg-AD
Prove: EBCD is a parallelogram
You won't see this exact problem, but I predict it will be very close.

Any solutions to the NJML $168 question??
Now that you have the starter equations, I should see an answer here! Remember hint... solve each of those equations by setting them equal to zero... CUZ... then you can set them equall to each other and continue solving (what fun!)

just a question....
Should I shut down the blog, or do you find it helpful? I would like ANYONE and EVERYONE in the class to respond, so please pass this post along. One of the original ideas behind the blog was to have students ask questions AND students answer each other's questions... with occassional help from the teacher. Instead, it appears that apart from a very occassional student answer (muchas gracias to those of you those of you that have provided an answer here and there), I am doing the bulk of the answering. I have offered extra credit (which I do follow through on) but even that hasn't seem to boost participation much.
So... if you want the blog to continue, post a response here and at least tell me that you read it. If you are a frequent reader, but you don't post questions or answers, I'd like to know "WHY?" as well. You can leave your response with your name or anonymously, I'm OK with either.
If I don't get any responses to this post... well, look at it from my perspective folks, why should I bother?
