A trapezium can have 0, 2 or 3 sides of equal length.0 equal sides
This is the general state of a trapezium.
2 equal sides
The 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 sides
These would have to be the two non-parallel sides and one of the others. The trapezium is isosceles.

Does a trapezoid have no equal sides?
A trapezoid need not have any equal sides, but it may have some equal sides. The only requirements to be a trapezoid, is that it has 4 sides, and at least one pair of parallel sides.
Does a trapezoid have 4 equal sides?
No, a trapezoid does not have 4 equal sides.
Is a trapezoid that has two sides of equal length is it an isosceles trapezoid?
Not necessarily. The two sides of equal length could be adjacent sides.
Difference with trapezoid and isosceles trapezoid?
If the two sides which are not parallel have equal lengths, then the trapezoid is called an isosceles trapezoid (standard trapezoid has unequal sides). The base angles in an isosceles trapezoid are equal in measurement, also I know that a trapezoid with two nonparallel sides the same length is called an isosceles trapezoid.
Does trapezoid have all sides equal?
No.
