Yes, Some can even be formed into a square and two triangles or a rectangle and one or two triangles. Just drop perpendicular(s) from the vertex (vertices) of the short side to the long side (that is to say, the two sides which are parallel). That will form one or two right triangles and a rectangle of some sort...could be a square--all squares are rectangles but not all rectangles are squares.

How do you make a trapezoid out of a square and triangle?
It is a square with a right angle triangle attached to it having the same height as the square.
How many trapezoid in a triangle?
A triangle cannot be formed by any number of trapezoids. Every time a trapezoid is stretched across one side of a triangle, a smaller triangle similar to the first is formed by the part not covered by the trapezoid. Unless... the triangle was equilateral and the trapezoids were isoceles. You could fill the triangle with 3 trapezoids as follows: Use the longer 'bottom' edge of each trapezoid and the 'left' edge of the next trapezoid to make up the edge of the triangle. The shorter 'top' edge of the trapezoids touch the 'right' edge of the next trapezoid in the center of the triangle.
What shape can make a trapezoid and triangle?
A trapezoid and a triangle can make a triangle or another trapezoid, among others.
How do you make a trapezoid out of one square and one triangle?
You can do it only of the triangle is right angled and if one of its legs is the same length as the side of the square. In that case, let that side of the triangle abut a side of the square.
Can a trapezoid make a triangle?
No because a trapezoid has 4 sides and a triangle has three if a trapezoid had three then it would be a triangle. If you had 3 trapezoids you could make a triangle!
