Yes because they are both quadrilaterals and their 4 interior angles add up to 360 degrees

A trapezoid and a rectangle are both polygons.
'A square is a type of rectangle, a rectangle is a type of paralellogram, a paralellogram is a type of trapezoid, a trapezoid is a type of quadrilateral.
A rectangle is never a trapezoid because a rectangle does not have exactly 1 pair of parallel sides
A rectangle is not a trapezoid. A trapezoid is defined as a quadrilateral with one pair of parallel sides and another pair that is not parallel. That description cannot be applied to a rectangle. It is only if you define a trapezoid as a quadrilateral with one pair of parallel sides and say nothing at all about the other sides, can a rectangle be said to be a trapezoid. But you would have to be mathematically incompetent to use that as a definition of a trapezoid.
A trapezoid and rectangle have a number of similarities:Both are 4 sided quadrilateralsBoth have 4 interior angles that add up to 360 degreesBoth have 2 diagonals
