Some of the properties of trapezium are as follows: So let us check out some properties to know more about trapezium.
Some properties of trapezium are:
- Trapezium has two parallel sides.
- The sum of adjacent angles of a trapezium is 180 degrees.
- The diagonals of a trapezium bisect each other.
- The area of a trapezium = 1/2 (sum of parallel sides) * (perpendicular distance between them).
- A trapezium can be either an isosceles trapezium or a right trapezium.
- Isosceles trapezium has two equal parallel sides.
- Right trapezium has one right angle.
- A trapezium can be either a convex trapezium or a concave trapezium.
- Convex trapezium has all its interior angles less than 180 degrees.
- Concave trapezium has at least one interior angle greater than 180 degrees.
