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.

Does a trapezoid have any right angles?
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.
How many angles in a trapezoid?
A trapezoid is a quadrilateral and like all quadrilaterals it will have a total sum of 360 degrees of interior angles.
Which polygon doesn't belong out of a rectangle and triangle and hexagon and trapezoid?
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.
An isosceles trapezoid is a trapezoid with congruent bases?
False.
Is every trapezoid a rectangle?
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.
