Do all trapezoids have one pair of congruent sides?

Yes, all trapezoids must have one pair of congruent sides.


Are all quardrilaterals trapezoids?

All polygons with 4 sides are called quadrilaterals which includes trapezoids


What do all trapezoids have in common?

All trapezoids have four sides, and all of them have one set of parallel lines


Are there any trapezoids that are also rhombuses?

yes - all the rhombuses. By definition a trapezoid has two parallel sides, a rhombus also has two parallel sides - because both pairs of opposite sides are parallel. So all rhombuses are trapezoids (but not all trapezoids are rhombuses)


Do all trapezoids have a pair of parallel sides?

Yes.


Are all trapezoids isosceles?

No. Most Trapezoids are not isosceles. The non parallel sides must be congruent to be isosceles.


Are trapezoids retangles?

No, trapezoids are not rectangles. While both shapes have four sides, rectangles have opposite sides that are equal in length and all interior angles are right angles, whereas trapezoids have only one pair of opposite sides that are parallel.


Do all trapezoids have exactally one pair of congruent sides?

Only if it's an isosceles trapezoid otherwise all trapezoids have exactly one pair of parallel sides that are of different lengths


If a trapezoid is a parallelogram why is it?

Some people define trapezoids as having at least one pair of parallel sides. By this definition, all parallelograms are trapezoids, though not all trapezoids are parallelograms.Some people define trapezoids as having exactly one pair of parallel sides. By this definition, the terms "trapezoid" and "parallelogram" are mutually exclusive.


Is all trapezoids are quadrilaterals?

No but a trapezoid does belongs to the class of 4 sided quadrilaterals.


Do all trapezoids have exactly one pair of congruent sides?

By definition, a trapezoid only must have exactly one pair of parallel sides. An isosceles trapezoid does have one pair of congruent sides, but not all trapezoids will have exactly one pair of congruent sides.


Are all trapezoids polygons?

A polygon is a 2 dimensional shape with three or more sides that is closed in. A trapezoid is a four sided shape with only one pair of parallel sides. Therefore all trapezoids are polygons.
