Solution

The correct option is B
Every parallelogram is a trapezium

A rhombus is a parallelogram with all sides equal. A rectangle is a parallelogram with opposite sides equal and all angles right angles. Every rectangle is not a square because in a square all sides are equal. A parallelogram is a trapezium because it has at least one pair of sides parallel.
