US Definition
A trapezoid is a closed plane figure consisting of four line segments/sides; two of these line segments are parallel (but not equal in length) and two are nonparallel.
(in the UK, this is called a trapezium)
British Definition
A trapezoid is a closed plane figure consisting of four line segments/sides; NONE of these line segments are parallel to any of the other line segments of the quadrilateral.
(in the US this is just a quadrilateral)

What else can I help you with?
Is a trapezoid always an isosceles trapezoid?
No, not every trapezoid is an isosceles trapezoid.
The median of a trapezoid bisects the bases of the trapezoid?
The altitude of a trapezoid bisects the bases of the trapezoid.
What are all the names for the trapezoid?
All the names to classify a trapezoid are a trapezoid and a quadrilateral.
How do you find height of a trapezoid?
A trapezoid is a polygon. Therefore, a trapezoid has no height
What are different for a trapezoid?
A trapezoid can also take the form of an isosceles trapezoid
What is a trapezoid with congruent diagonals?
A trapezoid with congruent diagonals is an isosceles trapezoid.
Difference with trapezoid and isosceles trapezoid?
If the two sides which are not parallel have equal lengths, then the trapezoid is called an isosceles trapezoid (standard trapezoid has unequal sides). The base angles in an isosceles trapezoid are equal in measurement, also I know that a trapezoid with two nonparallel sides the same length is called an isosceles trapezoid.
One of the two nonparallel sides of the trapezoid?
The leg of a trapezoid is one of the two nonparallel sides of the trapezoid. However, the base of a trapezoid is of the two parallel sides of the trapezoid.
Are the diagonals of a trapezoid congruent?
Yes, the diagonals of a trapezoid are congruent.Another Answer:-The diagonals of a trapezoid are congruent only when it is in the form of an isosceles trapezoid.
How many faces does a Trapezoid have?
A trapezoid is a quadrilateral and has four faces.
What is base angels of a trapezoid?
The base angels of a trapezoid are the angles that attach to the legs of the trapezoid. There are four base angles in a trapezoid.
Are the diagonals of trapezoid congruent?
Yes, the diagonals of a trapezoid are congruent.Another Answer:-The diagonals of a trapezoid are congruent only when it is in the form of an isosceles trapezoid.
