It depends on whether you consider rectangles and other parallelograms to be forms of trapezoids.
If a rectangle can be considered a special case of a trapezoid (UK trapezium), and an isosceles trapezoid is modified so that any of its angles is 90 degrees, then it is a rectangle. In other words, it becomes a trapezoid with all right angles.
However, you can also consider that trapezoids and parallelograms are two different kinds of quadrilaterals: trapezoids having one set of parallel sides and parallelograms having two sets. Then a trapezoid can never be a rectangle, or it would just be called a rectangle.
No I don't think so. A trapezoid by definition has only one set of parallel sides, but for a rectangle both sets of sides must be parallel.
They are both quadrilaterals but 2 different types of quadrilaterals.
No.
A rectangle has 2 pairs of parallel sides.
A trapezium has 1 pair of parallel sides.
Since 2 does not equal 1, these two shapes can never be equivalent.
A trapezoid is any quadrilateral (four sided figure) with two parallel sides. All rectangles are parallelograms, and all parallelograms are trapezoids. However, only some trapezoids are rectangles.
No but they are both 4 sided quadrilaterals
A trapezoid and a rectangle are both polygons.
No, every trapezoid is not a rectangle. There is no overlap between rectangles and trapezoids -- that is, no trapezoid is a rectangle. They are both four-sided quadrilaterals
'A square is a type of rectangle, a rectangle is a type of paralellogram, a paralellogram is a type of trapezoid, a trapezoid is a type of quadrilateral.
A rectangle is never a trapezoid because a rectangle does not have exactly 1 pair of parallel sides
A rectangle is not a trapezoid. A trapezoid is defined as a quadrilateral with one pair of parallel sides and another pair that is not parallel. That description cannot be applied to a rectangle. It is only if you define a trapezoid as a quadrilateral with one pair of parallel sides and say nothing at all about the other sides, can a rectangle be said to be a trapezoid. But you would have to be mathematically incompetent to use that as a definition of a trapezoid.

A rectangle has four right angles; a trapezoid doesn't.
A rectangle has four ninety degree angles, where as a trapezoid does not.

is a trapezoid a rectangle
NO. A trapezoid cannot be a rectangle. If a parallelogram has one right angle then it is a rectangle. A trapezoid doesn't satisfy this condition because a trapezoid is a quadrilateral with exactly one parallel side which means that it doesn't have a right angle.
a trapezoid has 1 pair of parallel lines and a rectangle has 2 parallel lines
A trapezoid is never a rectangle but they are both 4 sided quadrilaterals
