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.

How many equal sides has a trapezium?
A trapezium is a four sided figure with 2 sides parallel. None of its sides need to be equal in length.
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?
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.
How many equal sides has a trapezium?
A trapezium is a four sided figure with 2 sides parallel. None of its sides need to be equal in length.
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
What shape has 4 sides but not all same length?
trapezium
How do you get the perimeter of a trapezium?
By adding the length of all four sides.
What shape has 6 faces and the sides are the same length?
trapezium
Two pairs of equal length sides but opposite sides not equal length?
This is a quadrilateral. It could be a symmetric trapezium /
