What does a trapezoid in which the nonparallel sides have the same length describe?
The description given fits that of an isosceles trapezoid whereas non parallel sides are equal in length and base angles are equal in sizes.
Quadrilateral plane figure with parallel sides and 2 nonparallel sides?
A trapezoid would fit the given description.
Prove that the line which divides the nonparallel sides of a trapezium proportionally is parallel to the third side.?
To prove that the line which divides the nonparallel sides of a trapezium proportionally is parallel to the third side, we can use the property of similar triangles. Let the trapezium ABCD have sides AB and CD as the nonparallel sides, and side BC as the third side. Let the line dividing AB and CD be denoted as EF, with E on AB and F on CD. By the property of similar triangles, we can show that triangles AEF and BCF are similar, and hence their corresponding angles are congruent. This proves that EF is parallel to BC.
What is the volume and area of an isosceles trapezium?
The area of a trapezium is given by 0.5*(a+b)*h where a and b are the lengths of the parallel sides and h is the vertical distance between them. The fact that the trapezium is isosceles does not matter. A trapezium is a 2 dimensional object and so it has no volume.
What is a quauratualand 2 of its angles are obtuse and 2are acute and its oppoisite angliews are not equlal?
I am assuming the question refers to a quadrilateral (quaratual) with two obtuse angles and two acute angles, and its opposite (oppoisite) angles (angliews) are not equal (equlal)! It could be a trapezium or a quadrilateral with so specific name. Quadrilaterals with equal angles or equal sides, or parallel sides are given special names but there is no specific name for quadrilaterals which do not have any of these characteristics.
What is the total surface area of the trapezoid prism 2 3 5 3.5 6?
It is necessary to know which of the five given measures refer to the trapezium [cross section] and which one is the length of the prism. Furthermore, it is necessary to know which two of the four sides of the trapezium are the parallel ones.It is necessary to know which of the five given measures refer to the trapezium [cross section] and which one is the length of the prism.

What is a parallelogram which is a equileteral?
The special name given to a parallelogram with all side equal is a RHOMBUS.
How do you calculate the height of trapezium when area is not given?
In that case, it would be good to know WHAT is given. If NOTHING is given, you really can't calculate.
What name given to a quadrilaterall with one set of parallel side?
trapezoid or a trapezium (depending on where you are)
What is a special type of bar graph that displays the frequencies of data in given intervals of equal width?
Histogram
What is the area of a trapezium with height 3cm and 2 parallel lengths of 3cm and 3cm?
The information given describes a square and not a trapezium. Area of the square = 3*3 = 9 square cm
What is the formaula for the area of a trapezium?
If the two parallel side of the trapezium are a and b and height of the trapezium (the distance between the parallel sides) is h then the area is given by:Area = 1/2 (a + b) x hHalf the sum of the lengths of the parallel sides times the distance between them.
