Technically, yes - a trapezoid is a four-sided figure with two parallel sides. A rhombus is a four-sided figure with two pair of parallel sides. A rhombus might be described as a special trapezoid since it does have two parallel sides, but others might argue against such an interpretation.


Likewise, a square could be described as a special rhombus (or a very special trapezoid), since a square is a four-sided figure with two pair of parallel sides AND four right angles.

No a trapezoid has 2 side that are short and 2 sides that are longer also a trapezoid has 1 pair of parallel sides. However a rhombus has equal sides and 2 pair of parallel sides.

No, a trapezoid is not always a rhombus, but they are both four-sided quadrilaterals.
