There are two definitions of a trapezoid -- restricted and unrestricted. Both definitions require one pair of sides be parallel. The restricted definition requires that only one pair of sides be parallel. So, . . .
Under the restricted definition a rectangle or parallelogram isn't a trapezoid, but under the unrestricted definition it is.
