  1. A trapezoid is a four-sided shape which has one pair of sides as parallel. It is basically a two-dimensional shape or figure similar to a square, rectangle, parallelogram. Hence, this shape also has its perimeter and area as other shapes do.

  2. A trapezoid is a four-sided closed 2D shape that has an area and a perimeter. It is also called a Trapezium. The sides of a trapezoid are parallel to each other and they are termed as the bases of the trapezoid. The non-parallel sides are known as the legs or lateral sides of a trapezoid.

    A trapezoid is a 4-sided flat shape with straight sides that has a pair of opposite sides parallel (marked with arrows below): A trapezoid: Play with a trapezoid: The parallel sides are the "bases" The other two sides are the "legs" The distance (at right angles) from one base to the other is called the "altitude" Area of a Trapezoid.

  4. A trapezoid, also known as a trapezium, is a flat closed shape having 4 straight sides, with one pair of parallel sides. The parallel sides of a trapezium are known as the bases, and its non-parallel sides are called legs. The parallel sides can be horizontal, vertical or slanting.

    In geometry, a trapezoid ( / ˈtræpəzɔɪd /) in North American English, or trapezium ( / trəˈpiːziəm /) in British English, [1] [2] is a quadrilateral that has at least one pair of parallel sides. The parallel sides are called the bases of the trapezoid.

  6. Apr 26, 2024 · A trapezoid is a geometric figure characterized by four sides. Two of the sides run parallel with one another and are opposite to one another. These parallel sides are known as the bases, while the non-parallel sides are referred to as the legs.

  7. Aug 3, 2023 · A trapezoid is a flat geometric shape with four straight sides having at least one pair of opposite parallel sides. It looks like a triangle whose top portion is sliced off. The parallel sides are the bases, and the other two sides are called the legs or the lateral sides.

  8. A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one pair of parallel lines Bases - The two parallel lines are called the bases. The Legs - The two non parallel lines are the legs.

  9. A trapezoid is a quadrilateral with exactly one pair of opposite sides that are parallel. The pair of opposite sides that are parallel are usually the top and the bottom sides of a trapezoid. Properties of a Trapezoid. The parallel sides are called bases. The non-parallel sides are called legs.

  10. In a trapezoid, the pair of angles that share a common base are called base angles. For the trapezoids shown in the diagram below, ∠A and ∠D are base angles and ∠B and ∠C are base angles. The pair of angles next to a leg are supplementary: ∠A + ∠B = 180° and ∠C + ∠D = 180°.
