On Geometric Shapes quiz that I took, they over use the Trapezoid and Trapezium shape, there are American and British definitions, to which the Trapezoid for one was incorrect for the other, which makes me unhappy because by American definition, I was correct in saying trapezoid.
ReplyDeleteI copied a definition from a math web site, "A trapezium is defined by the properties it does not have. It has no parallel sides. Any quadrilateral drawn at random would probably be a trapezium. Since it has no interesting properties beyond those of a quadrilateral, it is not used much in geometry.
If the quadrilateral had one pair of parallel sides, it would be a trapezoid. If both pairs of sides are parallel, it would be a parallelogram.
Definition notes
There is considerable confusion over the definition of 'trapezoid' and 'trapezium' due to differences in the British and US versions. As you can see from the table below, the meanings of the two words are exactly reversed between the US and British interpretations.
British Trapezoid A quadrilateral with no sides parallel
US Trapezoid A quadrilateral with one pair of parallel sides
British Trapezium A quadrilateral with one pair of parallel sides
US Trapezium A quadrilateral with no sides parallel
