yes you can put a trapezoid on top and the bottom but upside down and the one on the side put it side ways so you have 4 trapezoids

Would you trust an answer that isn't even punctuated? Not that it would make any sense even if it were.

The question says "a trapezoid"; that means one, not four. Probably the easiest method is to divide the trapezoid into 2 equal parts, then divide each of these into 2 equal parts.

Bisect the parallel sides, then connect the midpoints forming 2 new trapezoids each half the size of the original. The bases of each are equal and each is the same height. Repeat the procedure for each of the new trapezoids. All 4 will be equal in area, but they won't be congruent (equal in shape).

How can an isosceles trapezoid be divided into 4 equal parts?

Oh, dude, so like, an isosceles trapezoid can totally be divided into 4 equal parts by drawing two diagonals from the top vertices to the bottom base. This creates four triangles, and since the trapezoid is isosceles, the diagonals will be equal in length, dividing the trapezoid into four equal parts. It's like magic, but with math!

how many equal parts are in the whole?

The number of equal parts in a whole depends on how the whole is divided. If the whole is divided into halves, there are 2 equal parts. If divided into thirds, there are 3 equal parts, and so on. In general, the number of equal parts in a whole is determined by the denominator of the fraction used to represent the parts.
