What quadrilaterals have two parallel sides'?
Squares, rectangles, parallelograms and rhombuses have two parallel sides. The other two are also parallel. A trapezium has only two parallel sides.
What polygons that have both perpendicular and parallel sides?
Squares and rectangles
Which are the figures that have parallel sides?
Squares, Parallelograms, Trapezoids, Rectangles, and Rhombuses
What other name is for a rectangle?
Rectangles are quadrangles, polygons with four sides. A rectangle is a quadrangle with two long sides and two short sides, and the long sides and short sides are parallel to each other. They are parallelograms, in which opposite sides are parallel. Note: All squares are also rectangles.
How are squares and rectangles different from each other?
Squares are equilaterals (same length on every side) Rectangles could be called parallelograms but the parallel lines are the same. It's hard to explain but I could show you. _______________ | | |______________| equal on parallel sides.

What figure has their sides both parallel and perpendicular?

Can you call a 4 sided shape a parallellogram?
Only if 2 sides are parallel with each other, and the other two sides are also parallel with each other. All squares are rectangles. All rectangles are parallelograms. All parallelograms are 4 sided. But not all 4-sided are parallelograms, not all parallelograms are rectangles, and not all rectangles are squares.
Are all rectangles sqares?
Rectangles and squares are quadrilaterals, or a polygon* with four sides. Rectangles have two sets of parallel** sides. Squares have four sides of equal length and four right angles*** for the corners. Rectangles and squares are not the same thing. * Polygon- a closed figure with straight sides. ** Parallel- two lines, that no matter how far they stretch, will never meet each other. *** right angles- a 90 degree angle.

Are Squares the same as Rectanangles?
No. Squares technically qualify as rectangles (parallel opposite sides, ninety degree angles, opposite sides are congruent, etc.) however rectangles do not qualify as squares. Squares MUST have four sides of equivalent length, and rectangles do not meet this criterion.

Which quadrilaterial has opposite sides equal in length and parallel?
usually, rectangles & squares do. :)
