Can a trapezoid have 3 bases?
No, a trapezoid cannot have 3 bases. A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides. The parallel sides are called bases of the trapezoid. Therefore, there can only be 2 bases.
Find the area of this trapezoid All length measures are in centimeters?
The area of a trapezoid is equal to the height, multiplied by the average of the two widths.
Is the area of a trapezoid equal to the products of the height and the length of the midsegment?
Area of a trapezoid = 0.5*(sum of parallel sides)*height
What is the missing angle measure in a trapezoid?
The answer will depend on what information you do have!
How do you find the area of a compound figure with there is a trapezoid and a rectangle?
Work out each figure separately then add them together: Area of a trapezoid = 0.5*(sum of parallel bases)*height Area of a rectangle = length*height
Can you describe a trapezoid?
A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one pair of parallel sides.
Which term should not be used to describe a square parallelogram rhombus rectangle trapezoid?
Trapezoid
Does a closed figure describe a trapezoid?
Yes because a trapezoid is a 4 sided closed shape which is a quadrilateral.

Trapezoid
Describe the difference between a parallelogram and a trapezoid?
A parallelogram has two pairs of parallel sides and a trapezoid has no parallel sides.
Describe the characteristics that make a quadrilateral a trapezoid and what an isosceles trapezoid and a right trapezoid must have?
A quadrilateral that has one (and only one) pair of parallel sides is a trapezoid. It is isosceles of the non-parallel sides are of equal length. It is right angled if any one of the angles is 90 degrees.
How do you describe a trapezoid by dimensions?
A trapezoid is a quadrilateral shape that has four sides of unequal lengths two of which are parallel to each other. An isosceles trapezoid also has two parallel sides but with two other sides being of equal length.
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.
Which term does not describe every trapezoid?
Not all trapezium are Isosceles.
Can you describe an isosceles trapezoid?
An isosceles trapezoid is a 4 sided quadrilateral having one pair of opposite parallel sides of different lengths and its two slanted sides are of the same lengths and it has one line of symmetry.
Is a trapezoid always an isosceles trapezoid?
No, not every trapezoid is an isosceles trapezoid.
What shape has 1 parallell lines but is a quadrilateral?
I assume you mean 1 pair of parallel lines, which would describe a trapezoid.
