A four-sided polygon with two parallel sides is called a trapezoid. In a trapezoid, the two parallel sides are known as the bases, while the non-parallel sides are called the legs. The parallel sides of a trapezoid are of different lengths, distinguishing it from a parallelogram where both pairs of opposite sides are parallel and equal in length. The sum of the interior angles of a trapezoid is always equal to 360 degrees.
The two parallel sides are called the bases, and the two non-parallel sides are the legs. If you call any other pair of sides the bases, the formula for the area of the trapezoid will no longer work.
The length of its median will be the same length as its line of symmetry.
A parallelogram or trapezoid.No!A parallelogram or a trapezoid are polygons (2-dimensional). A polyhedron, or 3-dimensional object, with parallel congruent bases is a prism.A prism. To give it fuller description, an "n-gonal prism" where the "n-gon" refers to the 2-d name of the bases.

To find the median of a trapezoid, you would add the lengths of the two bases of the trapezoid and then divide by 2. This will give you the median, which is the segment connecting the midpoints of the two non-parallel sides of the trapezoid.
FALSE
A trapezoid midsegment is parallel to the set of parallel lines in a trapezoid and is equal to the average of the lengths of the bases
The altitude of a trapezoid bisects the bases of the trapezoid.
The average of the bases of a trapezoid is the median.
If it is the line joining the midpoints of the parallel sides it most certainly is not.
The parallel sides of a trapezoid are the two bases
No, a trapezoid cannot have 3 bases. A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides. The parallel sides are called bases of the trapezoid. Therefore, there can only be 2 bases.

The parallel sides of a trapezoid are the two bases
They are parallel
No. A quadrilateral is trapezoid if it has at least one pair of parallel sides.
