Question:

What was the exact shape of the seventh World Trade Center building?

I think WTC 7 was a trapezoid. But I'm not quite sure if two of its sides were quite equal or not. I think I've read that the two sides that are close to equal were really not quite.

Look at this image to see the shapes I'm talking about: (http://content.answers.com/main/content/...

It's easy to find pictures of WTC 7's shape, but I haven't been able to tell if the two angular sides are equal or not. It might even be that the two sides that appear parallel really aren't.

So was it a trapezium, an irregular trapezoid, or an isoceles trapezoid?

(Note: Please don't throw in politics about the "9/11 truth movement" or "the secret government conspiracy" or whatever. I just want to know the building's shape.)
