Name the missing coordinates for the isosceles trapezoid.

The legs of an isosceles trapezoid are congruent and have opposite slopes. Point C is c units up and b units to the left of B. So, point D is c units up and b units to the right of A. Therefore, the x-coordinate of D is and the y-coordinate of D is 0 + c, or c0 + b, or b.
