4 sided shape with 2 paraell sides?
This is the definition of a trapezoid. Two parallel sides, and two non-parallel. ■
What is a shape with 2 parallel sides called?
There is no generic name. Any polygon with 4 or more sides can have 2 parallel sides. There are also non-polygonal shapes that can have parallel sides: for example, a circle that is stretched out into a cigar shape can have two parallel sides.
What is the difference between a trapezoid and an isosceles trapezoid?
In a general trapezium, the non-parallel sides are not congruent. However, in an isosceles trapezium, the non-parallel sides are congruent. So the shape is like an isosceles triangle with its apex chopped off by a straight line parallel to its base.
