If TRAP is an isosceles trapezoid, what is the value of x ?

Answer: E) x = 19
Step-by-step explanation:
PA and TR are the top and bottom bases.
Therefore, ∠T ≅ ∠R and ∠P ≅ ∠A.
Thus, ∠P and ∠T are supplementary (sum equals 180°)
∠P + ∠T = 180
5x + 9 + 4x = 180
9x + 9 = 180
9x = 171
x = 19
The value of x is 19 degrees, the correct option is E.
A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one pair of parallel sides.
TRAP is an Isosceles trapezoid
PA and TR are the top and bottom bases which are parallel to each other
As PT acts as a transversal ,
∠P and ∠T are supplementary angles
Therefore, the sum of the angles ∠P and ∠T will be equal to 180 degree
∠P + ∠T = 180
5x + 9 + 4x = 180
9x + 9 = 180
9x = 171
x = 19 degree
