The difference between a trapezoid and a parallelogram is very simple:
A trapezoid has exactly one pair of parallel sides and a parallelogram
has exactly two pairs of parallel sides.
Parallelogram: 2 pairs of parallel lines Trapezoid: 1 pair of parallel lines
No, a parallelogram is not always a trapezoid, but they are both four-sided quadrilaterals. A parallelogram has two pairs of parallel sides, and a trapezoid has only one pair of parallel sides.
No, a trapezoid is not a parallelogram.
NO!!!! Parallelogram ; both pairs of the opposite sides are parallel. Trapezium ; Only one pair of sides are parallel.
A trapezoid is different to parallelogram! Because trapezoid has one pair of parallel line and parallelogram has two pairs! PS. it obvious that these shapes is different you fool!
A triangle is not a quadrilateral, but a parallelogram and trapezoid are.
Parallelogram: 2 pairs of parallel lines Trapezoid: 1 pair of parallel lines
A parallelogram has 2 pairs of parallel sides whereas a trapezoid has only 1 pair of parallel sides
A parallelogram has two sets of sides that are parallel to each other. A trapezoid only has one set of sides that are parallel.
Square = parallelogram and a square trapezoid = trapezoid Parallelogram = Parallelogram
NO!!!! Parallelogram ; both pairs of the opposite sides are parallel. Trapezium ; Only one pair of sides are parallel.
NO!!!! Parallelogram has two pairs of opposite sides which are parallel. These pairs of opposite sides are the same length. Trapezium ; has one pair of opposite sides which are parallel. These parallel sides are NOT the same length .
A parallelogram is a 4-sided figure in which both sets of opposing sides are parallel and of equal length. A trapezoid is a 4 sided figure in which only one set of opposing sides is parallel and those sides are not in lenght.
If you pick any side of a parallelogram, there's always another side parallel to it. With a trapezoid, that's true for two of its sides, but not for the other two.
The main difference between a parallelogram and a trapezoid is the number of parallel sides they have: Parallelogram: A quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides. Opposite sides are also equal in length, and opposite angles are equal in measure. Rectangles, rhombuses, and squares are all special types of parallelograms. Trapezoid: A quadrilateral with one pair of parallel sides. The other pair of sides are not parallel. In North American English, it's called a trapezoid, while in British English, it's called a trapezium.
trapezoid
They are both 4 sided quadrilaterals but a trapezoid has only 1 pair of parallel line of different lengths whereas a parallelogram has 2 pairs of parallel lines
