A parallelogram has 2 pairs of parallel lines
A trapezoid is not a parallelogram. A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with at least one pair of parallel sides, while a parallelogram is a quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides. These two shapes have different properties and cannot be considered the same.
No because a parallelogram has different properties to a rhombus but they are both 4 sided quadrilaterals
Yes. They both = 360 degrees
A trapezium and a parallelogram are both quadrilaterals with at least one pair of parallel sides.
