A trapezoid has one pair of parallel sides. This means that there are two lines within the trapezoid that are parallel to each other. The other two sides of the trapezoid are not parallel to each other. This unique property of a trapezoid distinguishes it from other quadrilaterals like a parallelogram, which has two pairs of parallel sides.
A trapezoid (or trapezium, outside of North America) has two parallel sides.
The more common definition is a four-sided figure with exactly one pair of parallel sides. By this definition, figures with two sets of parallel sides such as a rectangle are nottrapezoids.
Some mathematicians use a more general definition that allows for one or more pair of parallel sides. By this definition, a rectangle, square, or rhombus would be considered as special cases of a trapezoid.
Yes, a trapezoid has two bases. They are the parallel lines on the top and bottom. Parallel lines look like this =
A trapezoid is a four sided quadrilateral that has only one pair of opposite parallel lines of different lengths.
Yes. The top and bottom lines of a trapezoid are parallel.
A trapezoid is a shape which has parallel lines and two other lines connecting the parallel ones.
A trapezoid has one pair of parallel sides. They are opposite parallel lines of different lengths.
A trapezoid has one set of parallel lines.
Yes, a trapezoid has two bases. They are the parallel lines on the top and bottom. Parallel lines look like this =
well, in any trapezoid there is always 1 pair of parallel lines. Therefore, there must only be 1 pair in the trapezoid
A trapezoid is a four sided quadrilateral that has only one pair of opposite parallel lines of different lengths.
A trapezoid has 2 parallel lines. It may or may not have perpendicular lines.
Yes. The top and bottom lines of a trapezoid are parallel.
A trapezoid is a shape which has parallel lines and two other lines connecting the parallel ones.
A trapezoid does not has 2 pairs of parallel lines. A parallelogram does.
