RafaA trapezoid is a quadrilateral that has one pair of parallel sides. Since a right angle is formed by two perpendicular lines, it would mean that one of the non-parallel sides would have to be perpendicular to one of the parallel sides, which violates the definition of a trapezoid. Therefore, a trapezoid cannot have a right angle.

What a trapezoid with only 1 right angle?
a right trapezoid
Why does a trapezoid have a right angle?
In general, trapezoids do not have right angles. In fact, a trapezoid with a right angle is a special case, called a rectangle.
Is there an isosceles trapezoid have at least one right angle?
Yes, an isosceles trapezoid can have at least one right angle. In such a trapezoid, the non-parallel sides are equal in length, and if one of the angles between a base and a non-parallel side is a right angle, the trapezoid will still maintain its isosceles properties. This configuration results in a trapezoid that is both isosceles and contains a right angle.
