I think this person means the trapazoid. It has only one pair of parallel sides.
Sometimes. One side can be perpendicular to the two parallel sides, but doesn't have to be.
Yes, it can can have two right angles. However, only 2 sides are parallel in a trapezium. One side of the two remaining sides can be perpendicular to the parallel sides, making it have two right angles.
If both pairs of opposite sides are parallel: A Rectangle, or a Square. If exactly one pair of opposite sides are parallel: An Isosceles Trapezoid. If it does not have parallel sides and one diagonal is the perpendicular bisector of the other: A Kite It is also possible that it does not have any parallel sides and neither diagonal is the perpendicular bisector of the other: A quadrilateral
trapezium
The only requirement for a trapezoid is that one pair of opposite sides be parallel. There could be trapezoids with a pair of perpendicular lines.
A trapezoid (or trapezium in some regions) has one set of parallel sides and one set of perpendicular sides. Specifically, a right trapezoid features one pair of parallel sides and the non-parallel sides that are perpendicular to one of the parallel sides. This shape allows for various applications in geometry and design.

trapezoid
A shape that has two parallel lines and no perpendicular lines is a trapezoid, specifically an isosceles trapezoid. In this shape, one pair of opposite sides is parallel, while the other pair is not perpendicular to the parallel sides. This creates a unique geometry without right angles. Another example could be a parallelogram, which also has two pairs of parallel sides but does not necessarily have any perpendicular lines.
A shape that has two parallel lines and one perpendicular line is a right-angled triangle. In this triangle, one of the sides can be considered the base with the other being the height, which is perpendicular to the base. The two parallel lines can be imagined as the two sides of a right-angled triangle that are extended. Alternatively, this configuration can also represent a trapezoid if the opposite sides are parallel and one side is perpendicular to the base.
A shape with only one pair of perpendicular sides is typically a right trapezoid (or right-angled trapezium). In this shape, one pair of opposite sides is parallel, while the other pair consists of one side that is perpendicular to the parallel sides. This configuration creates a right angle between the non-parallel side and one of the parallel sides. As a result, it has distinct geometric properties, including one right angle.
It fits the description of a right angle triangle
A trapezoid typically has two parallel sides and two non-parallel sides. Depending on its specific type, such as a right trapezoid, it may have one or two perpendicular sides. In a right trapezoid, one of the non-parallel sides is perpendicular to the parallel sides, resulting in one pair of perpendicular sides.
A hexagon is neither parallel nor perpendicular, as these terms typically refer to the relationship between lines or planes. A hexagon is a two-dimensional geometric shape with six sides and angles. The sides of a hexagon can be parallel or perpendicular to one another, depending on its specific orientation, but the shape itself does not embody these properties.
A right trapezoid (or right trapezium) has one pair of parallel sides and one right angle. In this shape, one of the non-parallel sides is perpendicular to the two parallel sides, forming a right angle. This configuration allows for various applications in geometry and design.
Sometimes. One side can be perpendicular to the two parallel sides, but doesn't have to be.
A trapezoid is defined as a four-sided figure (quadrilateral) with at least one pair of parallel sides. The other pair of sides can be either parallel or non-parallel, and they are not necessarily perpendicular. In some cases, a trapezoid may have perpendicular sides, but this is not a requirement for its classification.
