A trapezoid can't have three right angles. A quadrilateral with three right angles must have a total of four right angles, since a quadrilateral's interior angles add up to 360. 360 - (3*90) = 90, so the fourth angle would have to be right as well. A quadrilateral with four right angles is not a trapezoid; instead it is a rectangle or a square.

Some trapezoids will, while others will not. For a trapezoid, you must have a polygon with 4 sides, with exactly two of them being parallel to each other. Your trapezoid could have a right angle if it looked like this: ____ | \ -------- But not if it looked like this: ______ / \ ---------- Trapezoids can vary in shape, so your trapezoid may or may not have a right angle.
A trapezoid is a quadrilateral and like all quadrilaterals it will have a total sum of 360 degrees of interior angles.
If the triangle and hexagon are equilateral, then the trapezoid is not like the others because all of its angles are not equal. A rectangle will have 4 equal right angles. An equilateral triangle will have 3 equal acute 60 degree angles. An equilateral hexagon will have 6 equal obtuse 120 degreeangles.
False.
Oh honey, let me lay down some geometry truth for you. A trapezoid is like a rebellious teenager - it can have all sorts of wonky sides and angles. But a rectangle? Oh no, honey, that's a whole different breed. Rectangles have those nice right angles and equal sides. So, to answer your question, nope, not every trapezoid can be a rectangle.
