No, a trapezium cannot have a right angle. A trapezium is a quadrilateral with at least one pair of parallel sides, but it does not have any restrictions on its angles. A right angle measures 90 degrees, which would imply that the non-parallel sides of the trapezium are perpendicular, making it a different shape altogether, such as a rectangle or a square.

Yes, it can can have two right angles. However, only 2 sides are parallel in a trapezium. One side of the two remaining sides can be perpendicular to the parallel sides, making it have two right angles.
