When a trapezoid is cut in half, the resulting shape is two identical triangles. Each triangle will have a base that is half the length of the original trapezoid's base, and the two non-parallel sides of the trapezoid will become the two equal sides of the triangles. The height of the trapezoid will also be split in half to form the height of each triangle.
Oh, dude, a trapezoid cut in half would be two triangles, like if you take a slice of Pizza and then cut it down the middle. So, yeah, you'd have two right-angled triangles, not a trapezoid anymore. Geometry, man, it's wild.

What shape will you get when you cut out a traoizoid?
A trapezoid is a 4 sided shape that belongs to the class of polygons known as quadrilaterals
If you make half of a hexagon what shape do you get?
a square ----------- Assuming it's a regular hexagon, it can be one of two shapes depending on whether you cut it in half on a side or on a vertex. On a side, it is an irregular pentagon. On a vertex, it is a trapezoid (quadrilateral).
What is a trapezoid cut in half called?
It could be two trapezoids, or a triangle and a quadrilateral. It all depends on where the cut is made.
What is the formula to find the median of a trapezoid?
you just simply cut it in half and you'll have the median
What is the name for half a hexagon?
If you bisect a regular hexagon (cut in half from one vertex to the opposite vertex) the shape you get is a trapezoid. If you bisect the hexagon from the midpoint of one side to the midpoint of the opposite side, then the shape you would is a pentagon, similar looking to home plate in baseball.
What type of shape is a trapezoid?
A trapezoid is a 4 sided quadrilateral shape
