Some trapezoids will, while others will not. For a trapezoid, you must have a polygon with 4 sides, with exactly two of them being parallel to each other.

Your trapezoid could have a right angle if it looked like this:

____

But not if it looked like this:

______

----------

Trapezoids can vary in shape, so your trapezoid may or may not have a right angle.

A trapezoid can have up to two right, 90 degree angles for it still to be classified as a trapezoid.


Does a trapezoid have right angles?

A trapezium can have at most two right angles. But it need not have any.It is a quadrilateral and so the sum of its four angles must be 360 degrees. If there are 3 right angles then they sum to 3*90 = 270 degrees and so the fourth must be 360-270 = 90 degrees. Therefore it has four right angles and then is no longer a trapezium but a rectangle!
