Describe the characteristics that make a quadrilateral a trapezoid and what an isosceles trapezoid and a right trapezoid must have?
A quadrilateral that has one (and only one) pair of parallel sides is a trapezoid. It is isosceles of the non-parallel sides are of equal length. It is right angled if any one of the angles is 90 degrees.
What does a trapezoid in which the nonparallel sides have the same length describe?
The description given fits that of an isosceles trapezoid whereas non parallel sides are equal in length and base angles are equal in sizes.
What shape has 1 parallell lines but is a quadrilateral?
I assume you mean 1 pair of parallel lines, which would describe a trapezoid.
How do you find height of a trapezoid?
A trapezoid is a polygon. Therefore, a trapezoid has no height
What is a trapezoid with congruent diagonals?
A trapezoid with congruent diagonals is an isosceles trapezoid.
Which term should not be used to describe a square parallelogram rhombus rectangle trapezoid?
Trapezoid
Does a closed figure describe a trapezoid?
Yes because a trapezoid is a 4 sided closed shape which is a quadrilateral.

Trapezoid
Describe the difference between a parallelogram and a trapezoid?
A parallelogram has two pairs of parallel sides and a trapezoid has no parallel sides.
Describe the characteristics that make a quadrilateral a trapezoid and what an isosceles trapezoid and a right trapezoid must have?
A quadrilateral that has one (and only one) pair of parallel sides is a trapezoid. It is isosceles of the non-parallel sides are of equal length. It is right angled if any one of the angles is 90 degrees.
How do you describe a trapezoid by dimensions?
A trapezoid is a quadrilateral shape that has four sides of unequal lengths two of which are parallel to each other. An isosceles trapezoid also has two parallel sides but with two other sides being of equal length.
What does a trapezoid in which the nonparallel sides have the same length describe?
The description given fits that of an isosceles trapezoid whereas non parallel sides are equal in length and base angles are equal in sizes.
Which term does not describe every trapezoid?
Not all trapezium are Isosceles.
Can you describe an isosceles trapezoid?
An isosceles trapezoid is a 4 sided quadrilateral having one pair of opposite parallel sides of different lengths and its two slanted sides are of the same lengths and it has one line of symmetry.
Is a trapezoid always an isosceles trapezoid?
No, not every trapezoid is an isosceles trapezoid.
What shape has 1 parallell lines but is a quadrilateral?
I assume you mean 1 pair of parallel lines, which would describe a trapezoid.
The median of a trapezoid bisects the bases of the trapezoid?
The altitude of a trapezoid bisects the bases of the trapezoid.
