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!

BeauA trapezoid can have at most two right angles and as few as none but it must have two sides that are parallel.
Not necessarily. A trapezoid is any four-sided polygon with two sides parallel. A special case is a right trapezoid, in which on side is perpendicular to the two parallel sides, forming two right angles. A trapezoid actually cannot have merely one right angle, it can have zero or two.

In general a trapezoid does not have to have right angles, but a special kind of trapezoid does. It can have 2 right angles providing that the other 2 angles are an obtuse and an acute angle.

How many right angles are in a trapezoid?
A trapezoid can have either none or two right angles.
Do the trapezoid has at least 1 right angle?
No. A trapezoid need not have any right angles.
What does a trapezoid with three right angles look like?
A trapezoid can't have three right angles. A quadrilateral with three right angles must have a total of four right angles, since a quadrilateral's interior angles add up to 360. 360 - (3*90) = 90, so the fourth angle would have to be right as well. A quadrilateral with four right angles is not a trapezoid; instead it is a rectangle or a square.
Can a trapezoid have two right angles?
yes it can
Can you draw a trapezoid with three right angles?
no
What trapezoid has 2 right angles?
A right trapezoid has at least two right angles.
How many right angles are in a trapezoid?
A trapezoid can have either none or two right angles.
Does a trapezoid have one or two right angles?
A trapezoid may have two right angles.
How many right angles does trapezoid have?
A trapezoid can have up to two right, 90 degree angles for it still to be classified as a trapezoid.
Does a trapezoid has 4 right angles?
A shape with 4 right angles would be a square or rectangle. A trapezoid does not have any right angles..
Do the trapezoid has at least 1 right angle?
No. A trapezoid need not have any right angles.
How do you draw a trapezoid with 3 right angles?
It would be impossible. A trapezoid can't have three right angles. It would just make a rectangle.
What does a trapezoid with two right angles look like?
A trapezoid has four sides, where two of it's sides are opposite and parallel. If a trapezoid has two right angles that are adjacent to one another, it is called a right trapezoid.
Could a trapezoid have three right angles?
No, a trapezoid could not have three right angles. If it did, it would be a rectangle, as the fourth angle would need to be 90 degrees as well. A rectangle is not a trapezoid.
Do some trapezoids have 3 right angles?
Yes, a trapezoid can have 3 right angles.
What does a trapezoid with three right angles look like?
A trapezoid can't have three right angles. A quadrilateral with three right angles must have a total of four right angles, since a quadrilateral's interior angles add up to 360. 360 - (3*90) = 90, so the fourth angle would have to be right as well. A quadrilateral with four right angles is not a trapezoid; instead it is a rectangle or a square.
If a trapezoid had 2 right angles would it still be considered a trapezoid?
Yes.
