What is a Trapezoid?

Trapezoid is a quadrilateral with one pair of opposite and parallel sides. The pair of parallel sides is called the bases of the Trapezoid and the pair of non parallel edges is called the legs of the Trapezoid. Out of the four angles, in general a Trapezoid has 2 acute angles and 2 obtuse angles which are pairwise supplementary angles.
