A hexagon can be broken into any number, k (≥3) of trapezoids, and these will have 4k angles.
its half of it. if this is a coffee store, i need a mocha
You need at least four triangles, or at least three trapeziums. Or two triangles and one trapezium.
you can make 2 trapezoids
equilateral.
A hexagon has 2 trapezoids
there are 2 draw a line down the center of the hexagon
Well, honey, a hexagon has six sides, so technically you can fit six trapezoids in there if you get creative with your shapes. But if you're talking about how many trapezoids can fit perfectly inside a hexagon without overlapping, then the answer is zero. Hexagons and trapezoids are like apples and oranges, they just don't fit together like that.

Two trapezoids can make up a hexagon.
2 trapezoids.
Oh, dude, let me break it down for you. So, a trapezoid has 4 sides while a hexagon has 6 sides. To form a hexagon, you need 3 trapezoids because if you try to fit 4 trapezoids together, you're just gonna end up with a wonky shape that's not a hexagon. So, it takes 3 trapezoids to make 4 hexagons. Easy peasy!

Minimally, two (2) trapezoids are necessary to create a hexagon. (This solution comes from drawing a line straight across the center of the hexagon.) Most numbers (if not all) greater than two are also feasible, but with more finagling.
Two equal size isosceles trapezoids when joined together at their longest bases will form an irregular 6 sided hexagon.
use 4 triangles, make 2 trapezoids then put them into a hexagon
One half. Two trapezoids placed long base-to-long base create a hexagon.
