No. A trapezoid must have one pair of parallel sides, and a parallelogram must have two pair.

But a quadrilateral in general doesn't necessarily have any parallel sides.

Can All quadrilaterals can be classified as either parallelograms or trapezoids?

No because all quadrilaterals are 4 sided shapes which includes parallelograms, trapezoids, squares, rectangles, kites......etc


What are the irregular quadrilaterals?

Rhombuses, rectangles, kites, parallelograms, and trapezoids are all irregular quadrilaterals.


Is it true that all parallelograms are trapezoids?

No but they are both 4 sided quadrilaterals.


Is a quadrilateral a trapezoid?

No, a quadrilateral isn't always a trapezoid. One way to consider it is that all trapezoids are quadrilaterals (four-sided shapes), but not all quadrilaterals are trapezoids. Some quadrilaterals are concave quadrilaterals, some are scalene convex quadrilaterals (called trapezoids in the UK), some would be trapezoids, and some would be parallelograms (rectangles, squares, rhomboids, rhombi). If parallelograms are considered a special case of trapezoids, then trapezoids would include all non-scalene convex quadrilaterals, which is a highly inclusive definition.

Are all trapezoids parallelograms?

No trapezoids are parallelograms, and no parallelograms are trapezoids.


Is All trapezoids parallelograms?

No trapezoids are parallelograms, and no parallelograms are trapezoids.


Are all trapezoids parallelograms true or false?

False but they are both 4 sided quadrilaterals


Are all parallelograms trapezoids?

No trapezoids are parallelograms, and no parallelograms are trapezoids.


All quadrilaterals are trapezoids or parallelograms?

The answer to your question is neither. Trapezoids and paralellagrams(however you spell that) are both quadrilaterals. A quadrilateral is any shape with all straight edges and four sides. Hope I helped!


Are all trapezoids parallelgtams?

No trapezoids are parallelograms, and no parallelograms are trapezoids.


Are some quadrilaterals trapezoids?

All quadrilaterals are 4 sided shapes which includes trapezoids.
