Is a trapezoid also a parallelogram?

Explain why or why not.

2 answers

some definitions of trapezoid specify only that it must have one pair of parallel sides. In that case, a parallelogram is also a trapezoid.

Others specify that there be only one pair of parallel sides. In that case, it would not.

Check your course materials for the definition in use.
No, cus the parallelogram has two pairs of opposite sides parallel while a trapezoid has only one pair of opposite side parallel.Also the parallel sides are equal in parallelogram bt are nt equal in trapezoid
