A trapezium does not have to have adjacent sides equal, but might have.

In the US, trapezium just means any old four-sided shape. Outside the US, it means a shape with at least two parallel sides.

Are all the sides on a trapzium equal?

All the sides of a trapezium are not equal. Only two sides, which are not parallel, of a trapezium can be equal and such type of trapezium is called isosceles trapezium.

What is the common perimeter of a rectangle and a trapezium?

These two plane figures do not have a common perimeter. As the opposite sides of a rectangle are of equal length then only the measurements of two adjacent sides are needed to calculate the perimeter. (Perimeter = 2A + 2B, where A and B are the lengths of adjacent sides) However, a trapezium does not necessarily have any of its sides of equal length and therefore all four sides have to be measured to determine the perimeter.

Does a trapezium have any equal sides?

It can do. The non-parallel sides of an isosceles trapezium will be equal. Also, one of the non-parallel sides could be equal to one of the parallel sides.

How many equal sides does a trapezoid have?

A trapezium can have 0, 2 or 3 sides of equal length.0 equal sidesThis is the general state of a trapezium.2 equal sidesThe two parallel sides can never be equal.The two non-parallel sides can be equal. In this case, the trapezium is an isosceles trapezium.Or one of the parallel sides can be equal to one of the non-parallel sides. No special name.3 equal sidesThese would have to be the two non-parallel sides and one of the others. The trapezium is isosceles.
