What shape has 1 parallel side 2 right angle and 4 sides?
No shape has only 1 parallel side. A trapezoid is a 4-sided shape, or quadrilateral, with only 2 parallel sides; it does not necessarily have to have 2 right angles. (In the UK a trapezoid is called a trapezium.) In North America, a trapezium is a quadrilateral with 0 (no) parallel sides.
What is the name of a four sided shape that has two parallel sides?
a rectangle, which has two sets of parallel side
What shape has two pairs of parallel sides but is not a parallelogram?
|\/**\/| |/\__/\| an irregular shape like the one poorly represented above. the top horizontal sides are parallel and the side vertical sides are also parallel, but there can be other non parallel sides like the \/'s an /\'s. depending on the situation this question is being asked for this answer might be adequate. hope this helped. p.s. the in the middle of the shape can be ignored because they are there only to hold shape (spaces didn't work) and the asterisks at the top should be a line (same reasoning) Any regular even-number sided polygon will have at least two pairs of parallel sides. A regular hexagon will have 3 pairs of parallel sides.
What shape has 4 sides and two side s parallel?
A trapezoid would fit the given description which has only 1 pair of parallel sides of different lengths
Does a quadrilateral have only 1 pair of parallel sides?
Any four-sided shape is a Quadrilateral. Square, Rectangle, Parallelogram, rhombus, trapezoid etc. It may have no parallel sides as in a kite, 1 parallel side as in trapezoid or 2 parallel sides as in parallelogram.
What shape is a polygon with 4 sides no angles and one side is parallel?
its a shape
What shape has 4 sides 1 parllel side?
Not sure how you can have only one parallel side. What is it parallel to?
Does each side of a shape have to be the same length to be parallel?
No. The sides of a shape don't need to be equal in length to be parallel.
What shape has four sides with one parallel side?
You mean with two of the sides being parallel and the other two being at a slant with each other? That would be a trapezoid. Here's more information: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trapezoid

Is rhombus has parallel side?
A rhombus is a four sided shape where all sides are equal length and opposite sides are parallel.
What is the name of a four sided shape that has two parallel sides?
a rectangle, which has two sets of parallel side
What shape has one parallel side only?
Answer: trapezoid Answer: There is no such thing as "one parallel side". Parallel refers to the relationship between TWO lines - so, two lines can either be parallel, or not be parallel. A shape can have one PAIR of parallel sides (e.g. a trapezoid), two PAIRS of parallel sides (e.g., a parallelogram), or more than that (e.g., a regular hexagon has three pairs of parallel sides).
What is a shape which has 4 equal side but its opposite sides are parallel?
A square or rectangle.

What is a quadrilateral with two sides of parallel lines?
it might be a rhombus a trapezoid. A quadrilateral is a shape with 4 sides, and parallel sides are sides that go the same direction. .....__________parallel with bottom ..../ . . . . . . . . . \ .../. . . . . . . . . . \ not parallel with other side ../. . . . . . . . . . . \ /_____________\parallel with top The dots are so it doesn't change. sorry.
4 sided shape with 1 parallel side?
It is not possible to have 1 parallel side since it must be parallel to another side. A four sided shape with 1 PAIR of parallel sides is a trapezium (or trapezoid).
