It is called a parallelogram.
parallelogram
A rectangle or a square are sets of quadrilaterals with two pairs of right angles. They each have two pairs of right angles and two sets of equal sides.
A rhombus is a type of parallelogram. Parallelograms are types of quadrilaterals. Everything that applies to quadrilaterals and parallelograms apply to rhombuses.Quadrilaterals have four sides and four angles.Parallelograms have at two pairs of opposite sides and opposite angles congruent. (Note: congruent is pretty much "equal", except for geometric figures). Both pairs of opposite sides are also parallel, hence the name "parallelogram".Rhombuses have all sides congruent.
yes, it has two sets of parallel lines. hence the name. It has two pairs of parallel sides because the top line is parallel to the bottom of the parallelogram and the opposite lines which do not touch are parallel to each other.
A trapezoid (or trapezium) has at least one pair of parallel sides.If you asked, "Name all the types of quadrilaterals which have at least one pair of parallel sides?", I would answer: Trapezoid, rhombus, parallelogram, rectangle and square.
Trapezoids make up the set of quadrilaterals with 2 pairs of parallel sides.
There are lots of different quadrilaterals that do not have two pairs of parallel sides: a kite, arrowhead, trapezium, and a shape which has no specific name.
The quadrilateral with two pairs of parallel sides
Parallelogram -- 2 pairs of parallel sides Trapezoid -- exactly 1 pair of parallel sides Rhombus -- 4 congruent sides Rectangle -- 4 angles congruent Square -- four angles and sides congruent
Parallelogram -- 2 pairs of parallel sides Trapezoid -- exactly 1 pair of parallel sides Rhombus -- 4 congruent sides Rectangle -- 4 angles congruent Square -- four angles and sides congruent
It is a shape which has two pairs of PARALLEL sides. Parallel sides - parallelogram. Get it?
