That's what most people would call Middle D, or D in the staff.
Low D = D below the staff
Middle D = D in the staff
High D = D above the staff (or D above High C)Benge 3X

You might benefit from the Berklee School of Music Theory Course. It's available in PDF form and download is free.
Be aware of one thing: trumpet is a Bb instrument, while the course materials are in Concert Pitch. In other words, if you play Concert Pitched music on the piano, you play it one step higher on trumpet. But for just studying theory, don't worry about transposition. That would apply only if you are playing trumpet and piano.

Like Joey DeFrancisco. Man for a person known as an organist, he plays a mean trumpet. I am getting more and more into his trumpet playing! He has a lot of Miles in his style!

Then after he had played the head of a tune on tenor, reached behind him off the bandstand and came up with a trumpet and killed it some more. What a surprise.
I, myself, harrumph, have played professionally, Trumpet, French Horn, Alto, Tenor, and Soprano Saxes, Recorder, Irish Penny Whistle and Irish Natural Flute,
There are plenty of multi-instrumentalists. Kenny Dorham also plaed good tenor sax. I heard Ira Sullivan play on trumpet, a very tasty head to a tune, the rhythm changed and the solo came in on sax. I was Ira. There's Maynard on Bone and Euph. Gunhild Carling, who plays just about everything. Multti-doubler James Morrison and the list goes on.
