A quadrilateral and a tetragon are two possible (correctly spelled) answers.
polygon, trapezium, quadrilateral are three other names
A trapezoid is a 4 sided polygon that belongs to the class of polygons known as quadrilaterals.
quadrilateral
they came from how many sides are on the polygon
Take your pick: square, rectangle, kite, rhombus, parallelogram, trapezoid or any other 4 sided quadrilateral polygon.
polygon & quadrilateral * * * * * That is not really true. A trapezoid is a particular type of quadrilateral and that, in turn, is a particular type of polygon. That does not make them alternative names for a trapezoid.

A trapezoid is a 4 sided polygon that belongs to the class of polygons known as quadrilaterals.
It could be a right angle trapezoid whereas the other two angles are acute and obtuse
quadrilateral
There are only two proper names for the shape: trapezoid (US) and trapezium (rest of the English speaking world - which is very much larger). Any other names are too broad and would include lots of shapes that are anything but trapezoids. A trapezoid is a polygon but so is any plane shape with 3 or 5 or more straight sides. A quadrilateral is better, but that terms includes (for example) a square which is certainly NOT a trapezoid.

Yes. To be specific, a trapezoid is a quadrilateral polygon. Polygon: a plane or figure that is formed by 3 or more segments, and each side only connects to 2 other sides.
A trapezoid is called a trapezium in the UK (because the UK trapezoid is scalene). In any case, a trapezoid is also a quadrilateral, in that it has four sides.
