On an active continental margin, you would be likely to find an active ocean trench. This structure would generally not occur at a passive continental margin.
You will find active faults and, if the margin is convergent, volcanoes.
Subduction. A subduction trench.
An active continental margin may have a trench.
passive margin
Active and passive margins describe the various characteristics of continental margins that are a result of plate tectonics. An active margin usually has numerous volcanoes and mountains, while a passive margin typically do not have these formations.

Passive continental margin.
Subduction. A subduction trench.
either active continental crust or passive continental crust.
An active continental margin may have a trench.
Passive continental margins are not areas of convergence. There is little volcanic and earthquake activity on passive margins. Active margins are areas of convergence where one plate is descending beneath another. They are associated with volcanic and earthquake activity.

No. There is no such thing as a passive plate edge. They are near a passive continental margin.
