Question

a trapezoid has only 1 pair of parallel sides, but a parallelogram has 2.
a parallelogram has 4 right angles, but a trapezoid doesnt need to have 4 right angles.
a parallelogram has only 1 pair of parallel sides, but a trapezoid has 2.
a trapezoid has 4 right angles, but a parallelogram doesnt need to have 4 right angles.

Explanation:

A trapezoid is defined as a quadrilateral with exactly one pair of parallel sides. A parallelogram is defined as a quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides. A parallelogram does not necessarily have right - angles (a rectangle is a special parallelogram with right - angles). A trapezoid also does not necessarily have right - angles (a right - trapezoid is a special trapezoid with right - angles).

Answer:

A. A trapezoid has only 1 pair of parallel sides, but a parallelogram has 2.
