What is a trapezoid'?
US DefinitionA trapezoid is a closed plane figure consisting of four line segments/sides; two of these line segments are parallel (but not equal in length) and two are nonparallel.(in the UK, this is called a trapezium)British DefinitionA trapezoid is a closed plane figure consisting of four line segments/sides; NONE of these line segments are parallel to any of the other line segments of the quadrilateral.(in the US this is just a quadrilateral)*(see the related links for images of trapezoids)
What is an example of a parallelogram?
A rectangle (opposite sides are parallel which is a parallelogram!)
Is a quadrilateral is a figure with no two sides congruent and parallel?
Not always because a quadrilateral is any 4 sided shape.
How would you describe a trapezium?
A quadrilateral, or four-sided plane figure with 1 pair of parallel lines
What plane figure has four sides with two that are parallel?
A trapezoid is a 4 sided quadrilateral having a pair of parallel lines of different lengths
What does parallelogram mean in mats?
A quadrilateral (ie 4-sided plane figure) with opposite sides equal and parallel
How do you describe a trapezoid?
A trapezoid/trapezium is a quadrilateral (4 sided shape) with exactly one pair of parallel sides.It is a quadrilateral (a closed plane shape with four linear sides) that has at least one pair of parallel lines for sides
Is a parallelogram always a quadrilateral?
Yes. A quadrilateral is any plane figure bounded by four straight lines. A parallelogram has both pairs of opposite sides parallel and is therefore a special kind of quadrilateral.
Is a quadrilateral any plane figure with four straight sides?
A quadrilateral is a closed plane figure with four straight sides.
Is a quadrilateral a solid?
No, it is a plane figure.
What are trapezoids?
A trapezium (as it is known in English) is a quadrilateral which is a closed plane figure with four straight sides. It has one pair of parallel sides. The other pair of sides is not parallel (otherwise the figure would become a parallelogram).
Are skew lines parallel?
No. If they are parallel, then a plane exists which both lines lie in. Skew lines can not be on the same plane.
