No but they are both 4 sided quadrilaterals.

How is a parallelogram different than a trapezoid?
A trapezoid only has one pair of parallel sides, while all parallelograms must have two.
Is every trapezoid a parallegram?
No trapezoids are ever parallelograms
Are all parallelograms trapizoids?
No. Parallelograms are never trapezoids because in order to be a parallelogram there has to be two sets of parallel sides. A trapezoid only has one set of parallel sides.
Which figures can have right angles but are not parallelograms?
A trapezoid or an irregular pentagon are two examples.
Are parallelograms sometimes rectangles?
Yes a rectangle is a special case of the parallelogram (one where any and all angles are 90°). Parallelograms are sometimes rectangles, but not always.The parallelogram is itself a special case of the trapezoid where at least one pair of opposite sides is parallel.the trapezoid is a special case of the quadrilateral, a planar convex figure with four sides.
Is all parallelograms a trapezoid?
no

Which shape does not belong with the others rectangle square trapezoid or rhombus?
Trapezoid. The rectangle, square, and rhombus are all parallelograms. The Trapezoid is a solid: a prism of trapezium cross-section.
What are three parallelograms?
a rectangle a square and a trapezoid
Every trapezoid is a parallelogram?
trapezoids are never parallelograms.

What do squares hexagons parallelograms and trapezoid have in common?
They are all plane figures bound by a polygonal path. This means that they are all polygons.
Name a trapezoid that is not a parallelogram?
There are absolutely no trapezoids that are also parallelograms.
Which figures can have right angles but are not parallelograms?
A trapezoid or an irregular pentagon are two examples.
Are parallelograms trapezoids?
There is disagreement among authors on this. It depends on your definition of a trapezoid. A parallelogram is defined as a quadrilateral with opposite sides parallel. A trapezoid is defined as either- a quadrilateral with at least one pair of parallel sides, or- a quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides.Therefore, if you go with the former definition, yes all parallelograms are trapezoids, because all parallelograms have at least one pair of parallel sides. If you use the latter definition, no.The "at least one" definition is consistent with the trapezoid's uses in higher math, such as the trapezoidal rule for approximating integrals.You can say, however, that all trapezoids are not parallelograms.
How does a trapezoid differ from a parallelogram?
A trapezoid has one pair of parallel sides. A parallelogram has two pairs of parallel sides.
