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.

Polygon with 4 sides not the same length?
A trapezoid or a trapezium
Two pairs of equal length sides but opposite sides not equal length?
This is a quadrilateral. It could be a symmetric trapezium /
Facts about a 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?
How many parallel sides has a trapezium?
How many equal sides does a trapezoid have?
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.
Are the sides of a trapezium the same length?
In a trapezium (or trapezoid in American English), the sides are not necessarily the same length. A trapezium is defined by having at least one pair of parallel sides, while the lengths of the non-parallel sides can vary. However, a special type of trapezium, called an isosceles trapezium, has the non-parallel sides of equal length.
Does trapezium have parallel sides?
A trapezium has two parallel sides (of unequal length) and two non-parallel sides.
Does a trapezium have all sides the same length?
no. one of the sides is a different length.
How do you find the parallel sides of trapezium if we know the area and the 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.
What is the difference between a rhombus and a trapezium?
A trapezium has one set of parallel sides of unequal length. A rhombus has two pairs of parallel sides, all of equal length.
Are any sides the same length trapezium?
Up to three sides can be of the same length but none have to be the same.
What is the name of a quadrilateral with sides of unequal length and two parallel sides?
it is a trapezium
Polygon with 4 sides not the same length?
A trapezoid or a trapezium
How do you get the perimeter of a trapezium?
By adding the length of all four sides.
What shape has 4 sides but not all same length?

What shape has 6 faces and the sides are the same length?

Two pairs of equal length sides but opposite sides not equal length?
This is a quadrilateral. It could be a symmetric trapezium /
