How is the formula for the area of a trapezoid related to the formula for a area of a parallelogram?
The formula for the area of a trapezoid is a combination of the formulas for the areas of a triangle and a rectangle. It can be seen as two congruent triangles placed together to form a parallelogram. So, the formula for the area of a parallelogram is a generalization of the formula for the area of a trapezoid.
What shapes have at least one pair of perpendicular sides?
Any shape, other than a triangle can have a pair of perpendicular sides.
How do you make a triangle and trapezoid out of a square?
To make a triangle, cut it on its diagonal and put two opposite legs together. you cannot make a trapezoid without two squares, where you do the same thing as the triangle but put the second square in between.

How do you make a trapezoid out of a square and triangle?
It is a square with a right angle triangle attached to it having the same height as the square.

How is the formula for the area of trapezoid related to the formula for the area of a parallelogram?
They both use perpendicular height and are in square units. Area of a trapezoid = 0.5*(sum of parallel sides)*perpendicular height Area of a parallelogram = base*perpendicular height

What are the basic figure?
square triangle circle trapezoid rhombus etc.
Are all the sides of a right triangle perpendicular?
If you have a triangle then one of the sides cannot be perpendicular to the other two. It is true for a square but it is impossible with a triangle. Definition of perpendicular: Being at right angles to the horizontal; vertical.
