What is a trapezoid?

A trapezoid is a convex quadrilateral. A trapezoid has at least on pair of parallel sides. The parallel sides are called bases while the non parallel sides are called legs.

Perimeter =  sum of lengths of sides of a trapezoid

What is the maximum length of each of the three sides?

58.5 = 3s + 18

58.5 - 18 = 3s

40.5 = 3s

s = 40.5 / 3

s = 13.5 feet
