Hello Anne, we do have a potential solution for carrying a trike and a bike. Unfortunately, there is not a bike rack that can hold both a trike and a bike at the same time. Your best option for carrying the trike is to use the SeaSucker Trike Rack part 298-BD1005. This is a vacuum cup mounted carrier that installs on the roof of your car. It will hold one trike weighing up to 45 lbs total.
Then for the bike you could simply use a trunk mounted or hitch mounted bike rack such as the Thule Hitching Post Pro # TH934XTR that you were looking at. Your vehicle just needs to be equipped with a 1-1/4" or 2" hitch receiver. You did not mention what kind of bike you have, or what kind of vehicle you will be using to carry them so if you want to send me that info, I am happy to make a more detailed recommendation.
