How to Draw a Trapezoid
Draw a trapezoid in 10 easy steps, about 8 minutes. Free, with a printable worksheet.
Each picture adds one red line. Draw that line, then scroll to the next picture. Rub out any dashed helper lines at the end. First up: the trapezoid.
Step 1: The trapezoid
Near the middle, draw a flat top line. Slant down and out from each end to a wider flat bottom.
Step 2: Two big eyes
In the middle of the trapezoid, draw 2 big egg eyes side by side with a black dot in each.
Step 3: Big smile
Under the eyes, draw a big wide U smile from under the left eye to under the right eye.
Step 4: Rosy cheeks
Below and just outside each end of the smile, draw a small sideways oval for a rosy cheek.
Step 5: Shape friends
Around the trapezoid, draw 3 little friends: a circle top left, a triangle top right, a square on the right.
Step 6: The ground
Along the trapezoid's bottom, draw a long ground line from past the left corner to past the right.
Step 7: Grass tufts
Near each end of the ground line, draw 3 short grass blades fanning up from the line.
Step 8: Pink cheeks, yellow triangle
Colour the 2 cheeks pink and the little triangle yellow.
Step 9: Blue circle, red square
Colour the little circle blue and the little square red.
Step 10: Purple trapezoid
Colour the trapezoid purple around the cheeks. Leave the eyes white. Go over your lines and your trapezoid is done!
