A parallelogram is a quadrilateral (four-sided polygon) containing TWO pairs of parallel sides. A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with ONE pair of parallel sides. Therefore a trapezoid is NOT a parallelogram.

Note: Both terms are misspelled in the question. The correct spellings are TRAPEZOID and PARALLELOGRAM.

How do you find the perimeter of a parellelogram?

i dont knowww


Is a rectangle a parellelogram?

yes, a rectangle is a parallelogram with right angles.


What figure is 2 dimensional with two pairs of parallel sides has no right angles and all sides are the same length?

A rhombus. More information... The no right angles is throwing me, but I will add this comment: A square A four-sided polygon having equal-length sides meeting at right angles. The sum of the angles of a square is 360 degrees. A Parellelogram is a four-sided polygon with two pairs of parallel sides. The sum of the angles of a parallelogram is 360 degrees. A Rhombus is a four-sided polygon having all four sides of equal length. The sum of the angles of a rhombus is 360 degrees. So, a Square is actually a Parellelogram and Rhombus as well; and it has 4 right angles. So... I am not sure that Parellelogram and Rhombus are what you were looking for,


What is the area of an isosceles trapezoid whose median has a length of 12 whose legs each have a length of 9 and whose altitude has a length of 8?

well since we know that the area of a isosceles tapezoid is the height(altitude)times twice the median divided by two, so the answer is 9(2)(12)/2=108


Are all rectangles parallelograms?

Yes. All rectangles are parallelograms.A parellelogram is defined as a figure in which both pairs of opposite sides are parallel.A rectangle can also be described as a quadrilateral parallelogram, or an equiangular parallelogram because all of its angles are 90 degrees.However, although all rectangles are parallelograms, it is important to remember that not all parallelograms are rectangles.All rectangles and parallelograms are 4 sided quadrilaterals
