Question

(a). Draw trapezoid ABCD. Let E and F be points on AB\overleftrightarrow{A B} such that CEAB\overrightarrow{C E} \perp \overleftrightarrow{A B} and DFAB\overrightarrow{D F} \perp \overleftrightarrow{A B}.

(b). Prove that CE=DF.

(cc). Let AB=b1,CD=b2b_1, CD=b_2, and CE=DF=h. Prove that the area of trapezoid ABCD is h2(b1+b2)\frac{h}{2}\left(b_1+b_2\right).

a) After drawing ABCD{ABCD}, we are asked to plot points EE and FF on AB\overline{AB}, where;

(i) CEAB\begin{align*} &(i)&\text{ $\overline{CE} \perp \overline{AB}$} \tag{1} \end{align*}

(ii) DFAB\begin{align*} &(ii)&\text{ $\overline{DF} \perp \overline{AB}$} \tag{2} \end{align*}
