Which side lengths? To calculate the parallel sides, you need the height of the trapezium and one of the sides, and you substitute them into the formula:
h(a + b)/2, where h = height, a and b are the parallel side lengths.
If you want to find the sides that are not parallel, you need the parallel sides, as well as the height of the trapezium. Then, by using Pythagoras theorem, with the side length the hypotenuse, you can find their lengths.
A trapezoid or a trapezium
This is a quadrilateral. It could be a symmetric trapezium /
A trapezium is a quadrilateral (has four sides). Two sides are parellel, but the other two are not. To find the area of it, the formula is: 1/2 h(a+b)
How many parallel sides has a trapezium?
A trapezium can have 0, 2 or 3 sides of equal length.0 equal sidesThis is the general state of a trapezium.2 equal sidesThe two parallel sides can never be equal.The two non-parallel sides can be equal. In this case, the trapezium is an isosceles trapezium.Or one of the parallel sides can be equal to one of the non-parallel sides. No special name.3 equal sidesThese would have to be the two non-parallel sides and one of the others. The trapezium is isosceles.
A trapezium has two parallel sides (of unequal length) and two non-parallel sides.
no. one of the sides is a different length.
A trapezium has a pair of parallel sides of different lengths so in order to find its 2nd parallel side the information given must include its height.
A trapezium has one set of parallel sides of unequal length. A rhombus has two pairs of parallel sides, all of equal length.
Up to three sides can be of the same length but none have to be the same.
it is a trapezium

A trapezoid or a trapezium
By adding the length of all four sides.
This is a quadrilateral. It could be a symmetric trapezium /
Not necessarily, but the two non parallel sides could be the same length.
