A trapezoid is a quadrilateral which must have one pair of parallel sides. If the other pair of sides is also parallel then it is a parallelogram.
A parallelogram with a right angle is a rectangle.
A trapezoid is a four-sided figure with two opposite sides parallel. A rectangle (and also a parallelogram) is a trapezoid but BOTH pairs of opposite sides are parallel.
The fact that (a) it has all the properties of a trapezoid, and (b) it has some additional properties, which not all trapezoids have, namely the fact that both sets of opposite segments are parallel.

A trapezium has a pair of parallel sides.
The type of characteristics a trapezoid has or any other shape has makes it special in so many different ways
It is a right angled parallelogram.
It has exactly one pair of parallel sides.
A trapeziod is a plane figure bounded by four straight sides. That makes it a quadrilateral. It does not have two sets of parallel lines so it cannot be a parallelogram.
A trapezoid is a special case of a quadrilateral which has 1 pair of parallel sides.
