Answer:
Every trapezium shows the following properties:
Angle: The sum of angles in a trapezoid-like other quadrilateral is 360°. So in a trapezoid ABCD, ∠A+∠B+∠C+∠D = 360°.
Two angles on the same side are supplementary, that is the sum of the angles of two adjacent sides is equal to 180°.
Its diagonals bisect with each other.
The length of the mid-segment is equal to 1/2 the sum of the bases. In the above figure mid-segment= 1/2 (AB+CD)
In special cases of the isosceles trapezium, legs of the trapezium are congruent to each other. This means that despite being non-parallel, the measurement of both the legs is equal.

Trapezium is a geometrical quadrilateral which has 4 side. It has 1 pair of parallel lines.
- Area = (1/2)h (Sum of parallel sides)
- Perimeter = Sum of all sides.
- The one pair of parallel sides are called it's base and the non parallel sides are called leg.
- The diagonals of trapezium bisect each other.
- As Trapezium is a quadrilateral, The sum of all angles are 360° .
- The opposite sides of trapezium is parallel.
- The Trapezium has 4 vertices and 4 edges.
- The sum of two adjacent angles of trapezium is supplementary.
