Depends on where the photos came from. If they were synced to the iPad via computer, they may have to be deleted on the computer. But if they're photos from elsewhere or taken on the iPad. The trash can should be there. Go to the camera roll.
Tap "select" in the top right corner. Then tap the photos you wish to delete. Then tap the trash can. Then tap where it says "Delete xx photos".
