What is the largest possible number of parallel sides in a hexagon?
Providing that it is a regular 6 sided hexagon then it will have 3 pairs of opposite parallel sides. Though an irregular hexagon (shaped as the outline of an L) can have 2 sets of three parallel sides.
What is A four sided figure with 2 pairs of parallel sides and no right angles?
Assuming that the figure qualifies as a polygon, then all figures in this category are parallelograms. If all sides are equal in length then the shape is also a rhombus.
How many parallel sides does polygon have?
A 3-sided polygon has 0 parallel sides. A 4-sided polygon can have 0, 2 or 4 parallel sides. A 5-sided polygon can have 0, 2, 3 or 4 parallel sides. In general, an n-sided polygon can have 0, 2, 3, ..., n-1, or n parallel sides where n>5. A polygon with n sides can have n pairs of parallel sides (if n is even) or (n-1)/2 pairs if n is odd AND greater than 3. But it need not have any.
Is it true that a four sided shape is always a square why?
No, a four sided shape is not always a square. The mathematical name for a four sided shape is a QUADRILATERAL. The definition of a square is a four sided shape with four equal sides and angles, internal angles totalling 360 degrees and four lines of symmetry. If a shape has all of these properties, it is a square.Possibilities for a four sided shape areAs said above, all are called quadrilaterals, but some have special propertiesA Parallelogram, which has opposite sides parallel to each othera Rhombus, which has all sides equal and parallel, but not necessarily with right anglesA Rectangle, which is a parallelogram with right angles.A Square, which is a rhombus rectangle. All four sides equal, all angles equal and right, all diagonals bisecting each other. It really is hip to be square.
How do you describe a trapezoid?
A trapezoid/trapezium is a quadrilateral (4 sided shape) with exactly one pair of parallel sides.It is a quadrilateral (a closed plane shape with four linear sides) that has at least one pair of parallel lines for sides
A 6 sided shape with 3 pairs of parallel lines?
A hexagon.
What shape has 4 sides and 2 parallel?
The four sided shape that has two parallel lines is called a trapezoid. A parallelogram is a four sided shape that has two pairs of parallel lines.
Does any shape have 3 pairs of parallel lines?
Yes and such a shape is a regular 6 sided hexagon
A four sided shape that has two pairs of sides the same length but no parallel lines?
A kite
What is the name of a 4 sided shape with no right angles and two pairs of parallel lines?
a parallelogram, maybe?
What shape with 4 sided shape has 2 pairs of parallel sides?
trapezium
Why drawing a diagonal on any parsllelogram will always result in two congruent triangles?
Well a parallelogram is a 4 sided shape with 2 pairs of parallel lines, hence PARALLELogram. That's the reason, because there are two pairs of parallel lines.

What is a six sided shape with 3 parallel lines?
