Any non-self-crossing quadrilateral with exactly one axis of symmetry must be either an isosceles trapezoid or a kite. [5] However, if crossings are allowed, the set of symmetric quadrilaterals must be expanded to include also the crossed isosceles trapezoids, crossed quadrilaterals in which the crossed sides are of equal length and the other sides are parallel, and the antiparallelograms ...
The British flag theorem can be generalized into a statement about (convex) isosceles trapezoids.More precisely for a trapezoid with parallel sides and and interior point the following equation holds:

Isosceles trapezium (UK) or isosceles trapezoid (US): one pair of opposite sides are parallel and the base angles are equal in measure. Alternative definitions are a quadrilateral with an axis of symmetry bisecting one pair of opposite sides, or a trapezoid with diagonals of equal length.

An even weaker condition on the curve than local monotonicity is that, for some >, the curve does not have any inscribed special trapezoids of size . A special trapezoid is an isosceles trapezoid with three equal sides, each longer than the fourth side, inscribed in the curve with a vertex ordering consistent with the clockwise ordering of the ...
A kite and its dual isosceles trapezoid. Kites and isosceles trapezoids are dual to each other, meaning that there is a correspondence between them that reverses the dimension of their parts, taking vertices to sides and sides to vertices. From any kite, the inscribed circle is tangent to its four sides at the four vertices of an isosceles ...
Heron's formula can be obtained from Brahmagupta's formula or Bretschneider's formula by setting one of the sides of the quadrilateral to zero. Brahmagupta's formula gives the area K {\displaystyle K} of a cyclic quadrilateral whose sides have lengths a , {\displaystyle a,} b , {\displaystyle b,} c , {\displaystyle c ...
