Assuming they don't overlap, and depending on their exact dimensions, these are some of the possible shapes: A triangle (big) A square A rectangle A parallelogram A rhombus A trapezium A pentagon A hexagon A heptagon and if a vertex of the triangle rests on the side of the trapezium, an octagon. a concave pentagon, a trapezium, a concave seven or eight sided figure (neither of the last two is a polygon but two polygons touching one another)
They are three different polygons.
A scalene trapezium is like a scalene triangle since all the sides are not the same
They can tesselate - provided they are the correct shapes.
If the sloped sides of an isosceles trapezium are extended to a vertex, you would get an isosceles triangle.If the sloped sides of an isosceles trapezium are extended to a vertex, you would get an isosceles triangle.If the sloped sides of an isosceles trapezium are extended to a vertex, you would get an isosceles triangle.If the sloped sides of an isosceles trapezium are extended to a vertex, you would get an isosceles triangle.
A trapezium
yes
No because they both have different properties inasmuch that a triangle has 3 sides whereas a trapezium has 4 sides.

Triangle & trapezium

There are 2 types of trapeziums: One with two slanted sides, and one with 1 To make a two slanted sided trapezium you make a rectangle with sides a and b and put two triangles of equal length on each side. To make a one slanted sided trapezium you do the same thing except with one triangle on only one side.

Suppose the base and parallel sides of the trapezium are labelled a and b. Suppose, also, that the distance between a and b is h. Draw a diagonal. This will split the trapezium into one triangle whose base is the trapezium's base (a) and another upside-down triangle whose base is the trapezium's top (b). The heights of both these triangles will be the same as the distance between the parallel sides of the trapezium (h). The area of the first triangle is 0.5*a*h The area of the second triangle is 0.5*b*h So the area of the trapezium = 0.5*a*h + 0.5*b*h = 0.5*(a+b)*h
A right angled triangle or a trapezium* * * * *A trapezium cannot have one right angle. If it has one it MUST have two.
