A trapezium (as it is known in English) is a quadrilateral which is a closed plane figure with four straight sides. It has one pair of parallel sides. The other pair of sides is not parallel (otherwise the figure would become a parallelogram).
in geometry i learned a parallelogram has only 2 pairs of parallel sides each pair of opposite sides is parallel
A parallelogram is a 4 sided figure that has 2 pairs of sides. Some examples would be a rectangle or a square.
parallelogram
There is no such thing as a parallelogram with only one set of parallel sides.No. Both opposite sides are parallel. They are also congruent
Trapezoid
trapizoid
an octogon
No. A parallelogram has two pairs of parallel sides. The trapezium has only one pair of parallel sides. (This applies the definition of a trapezium as a 4-sided figure with exactlytwo parallel sides.)
A parallogram has two pairs of parallel sides. A trapezoid has one pair of parallel sides. A regular octagon has four pairs of parallel sides. An irregular octagon may have from 3 pair to no pair of parallel sides.
A trapezium (as it is known in English) is a quadrilateral which is a closed plane figure with four straight sides. It has one pair of parallel sides. The other pair of sides is not parallel (otherwise the figure would become a parallelogram).
A trapezoid is never a parallelogram. The definition of a parallelogram is a four sided figure with 2 pairs of parallel sides and a trapezoid only has 1 pair of parallel sides.

Parallelogram, Rectangle, Square, Kite, Rhombus, Trapezium(only 1 pair of opposite sides is parallel).
One pair? If it is one pair of parallel sides, then it is a trapezoid. If it has 2 pairs of parallel sides, then it is a parallelogram.
It cannot. A trapezium is a quadrilateral that has one pair of parallel but unequal sides and another pair of non-parallel sides. A parallelogram has two pairs of parallel and equal sides.
A parallelogram is a 2-dimensional figure with four sides. Each pair of opposite sides is parallel.The root "gram" is a reference to something marked or written, a figure.The root "parallel" is a reference to parallel lines.So a parallelogram is a figure in which parallelism is a prominent characteristic.
