Explain why you cannot draw a square trapezoid. make sure to include the precise math words square, trapezoid, and their number of parallel sides in your answer.

1 answer

A square is a special type of quadrilateral with four equal sides and four right angles. In a square, all sides are parallel to each other. A trapezoid, on the other hand, is a quadrilateral with at least one pair of parallel sides. Since a square must have all sides parallel to each other, it cannot be drawn as a trapezoid, which only has one pair of parallel sides. Therefore, it is not possible to draw a square trapezoid.
