The special case <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><msub><mi>G</mi><mn>2</mn></msub><mrow><mo>(</mo><mi>x</mi><mo>,</mo><mi>y</mi><mo>,</mo><mi>z</mi><mo>)</mo></mrow><mo>=</mo><mn>0</mn><mo>,</mo><mo>∀</mo><mi>z</mi><mo>∈</mo><mi mathvariant="script">X</mi></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula>, where <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mi mathvariant="script">X</mi></semantics></math></inline-formula> is a real normed linear space, coincides with the trapezoid orthogonality (T-orthogonality), which was originally proposed by Alsina et al. in 1999. In this paper, for the case where <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mi mathvariant="script">X</mi></semantics></math></inline-formula> is a complex inner product space endowed with the inner product <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mo>⟨</mo><mo>·</mo><mo>,</mo><mo>·</mo><mo>⟩</mo></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula> and induced norm <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mo>∥</mo><mo>·</mo><mo>∥</mo></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula>, it is proved that <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mi>S</mi><mi>g</mi><mi>n</mi><mrow><mo>(</mo><msub><mi>G</mi><mn>2</mn></msub><mrow><mo>(</mo><mi>x</mi><mo>,</mo><mi>y</mi><mo>,</mo><mi>z</mi><mo>)</mo></mrow><mo>)</mo></mrow><mo>=</mo><mi>S</mi><mi>g</mi><mi>n</mi><mrow><mo>(</mo><mi>R</mi><mi>e</mi><mrow><mo>⟨</mo><mi>x</mi><mo>,</mo><mi>y</mi><mo>⟩</mo></mrow><mo>)</mo></mrow><mo>,</mo><mo>∀</mo><mi>z</mi><mo>∈</mo><mi mathvariant="script">X</mi></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula>, and a geometric explanation for condition <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mi>R</mi><mi>e</mi><mo>⟨</mo><mi>x</mi><mo>,</mo><mi>y</mi><mo>⟩</mo><mo>=</mo><mn>0</mn></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula> is provided. Furthermore, a condition <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><msub><mi>G</mi><mn>2</mn></msub><mrow><mo>(</mo><mi>x</mi><mo>,</mo><mi>i</mi><mi>y</mi><mo>,</mo><mi>z</mi><mo>)</mo></mrow><mo>=</mo><mn>0</mn><mo>,</mo><mo>∀</mo><mi>z</mi><mo>∈</mo><mi mathvariant="script">X</mi></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula> is added to extend the T-orthogonality to the general complex normed linear spaces. Based on some characterizations, the T-orthogonality is compared with several other well-known types of orthogonality. The fact that T-orthogonality implies Roberts orthogonality is also revealed.
