A trapezoid is a four-sided figure with two parallel sides. The other two sides are not parallel. A square is a special case of a rectangle, which is a four-sided figure with all four sides having the same length.

TaigaA square has four right angles. A trapezoid need not have any, and cannot have more than two.
A square is a quadrilateral with four equal sides and four right angles, making it a special type of rectangle. A trapezoid, on the other hand, is a quadrilateral with at least one pair of parallel sides. The key difference is that a square has all sides equal in length and all angles equal to 90 degrees, while a trapezoid does not have these characteristics.
